Bertha Lamme
Her name is mentioned as Bertha Lamme but there is no WP article on her at this writing. There is sufficient material for at least a short article on her included in the article on Benjamin G. Lamme, her brother. But most of the material there is not referenced. In B. G. Lamme's autobiography her name is mentioned on only two pages, p. 91 for her recruitment and doing computational work, and then late, in the appendix, on her appreciation of B. G. So there is not much about her there. Marlindale (talk) 20:45, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
--- continued: The appendix page is 185. The appendix was presumably written by the Editor of the autobiography, A. M. Dudley. The relevant sentence is: "Mr. Lamme's sister Bertha, later Mrs. R. S. Feicht [another Westinghouse engineer], stood in a unique and intimate relation to him in that having grown up with him as a sister and playmate, she also followed him into the profession of designing electrical machines and worked with him while achieving marked success of her own in the same art."Marlindale (talk) 02:49, 18 July 2014 (UTC) Marlindale (talk) 02:59, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
