BackgroundTowneley-Bertie was the son of Montagu Charles Francis Towneley-Bertie, Lord Norreys and the Honourable Rose Riversdale Glyn. His father died in 1919, during his grandfather's lifetime, and Towneley-Bertie was thereafter styled Lord Norreys until he succeeded his grandfather, Montagu Bertie, 7th Earl of Abingdon, as Earl of Abingdon on 10 March 1928. CareerHe was a family trustee of the British Museum, and High Steward of Abingdon. Upon the death on 2 January 1938 of his kinsman, Montague Bertie, 12th Earl of Lindsey, a fifth cousin thrice removed, he succeeded as 13th Earl of Lindsey. On his death in 1963 he was succeeded in his titles by his half-cousin, Richard Bertie, 14th Earl of Lindsey. He was on the governing body of Abingdon School from 1928-1949 and was the Chairman of the Governors from 1935-1937.[1] FamilyHe married Elizabeth ('Bettine') Valetta Montagu-Stuart-Wortley, daughter of Major-General the Hon. Edward James Montagu-Stuart-Wortley and Violet Hunter Guthrie, on 11 August 1928.[2] The marriage produced no children. When the Countess died in 1978, she left all her possessions- with a value of over £1.5 million- to her lifelong friend, Joyce, the wife of BBC television news editor Tahu Hole. They were later bequeathed to the Victoria and Albert Museum.[3] The couple are buried in Brookwood Cemetery.
