family

Bertrand's father, the pharmacist Seris Bertrand is said to come from Mogendorf near Neuwied. 1800–1828 Seris ran the court pharmacy in Nastätten , where he also served as a postal expedition from 1826/27. In 1808 he was allowed to run the pharmacy in Sankt Goarshausen for ten years , which he was later forbidden. He was also able to buy Anton Beck's pharmacy from the widow of Anton Beck, who died in 1814. After he had taken over the pharmacy in Schwalbach from Döring , he applied in 1827 to appoint him as a pharmacist for the L.-Schwalbach Medical Office and to have the pharmacy in Nastätten managed by a provisional until the end of 1828. In 1838, at his request, Bertrand was dismissed from civil service because of his old age, and his son Friedrich was appointed pharmacist in his place. In 1842 Seris tried to obtain compensation for his privileges. Friedrich became a medical assessor in 1856 and still owned the pharmacy in Langenschwalbach in 1866.
