I don't know , their names were- James Bunn and Susannah Bunn.They were staying with them at the time of the census in Birmingham warwickshire

I hope his name is Thomas & not James Bunn 1841 shows a Thomas , Susannah & John Bunn in the same household as David & Caroline Adams

I don't have any evidence but as Thomas & Susannah Bunn named their first child John I wonder if her maiden name may be ADAMS and therefore sister to David - only speculation at this stage further investigation would be needed

for info. in case they are related looking at the 1841c this looks a possibility for Susannah Bunn & her son John on later censuses

It is James not Thomas, maybe a relative

James Bunn must have a connection to Thomas Bunn then

1841c St Martin Warwickshire
Thomas Bunn 25 Packer
Susannah “ 25
John  “ 10
David Adams 20 Coach Smith
Caroline  “ 20

Will have a look tomorrow to see if I can make any connection to the Adams family

Elizabeth Adams b.1842 St.Martin's gives an address of Sherlock St. which is the same address as the 1841 census.His occupation is an axle tree maker as in the 1861 census.At least you know this David & Caroline had a daughter Elizabeth in 1842.All of the censuses are the same family as they all tie in with each other.
I would go for Elizabeth's birth cert.

This is the problem-Elizabeths borth certificate.
I have sent for loads of them and to gro offic have searched 1841 1842  1843 and they said they cannot find her with tha t information.Although I havent put caroloine "Turley" as the mother I put Caroline Lowe

[Ladyhawk]

Elizabeth Adams b.1842 St.Martin's
occupation is an axle tree maker

So David's occupation matches up with the censuses & birth/christening as posted by JJ
- it seems almost certain (although you can't be 100% without the actual certificate) that mmn is Turley

Elizabeth Adams bapt. 28 Mar 1842 Saint Martin Birmingham Warwick
birth date: 04 Mar 1842
father  David Adams mother  Caroline

Not much consolation for all the birth certificates for Elizabeth you have already purchased but at least you know have a date of birth for Elizabeth Adams I can't match up a Birmingham/Warwick 1842 Mar qtr. birth entry on FreeBMD 

I wonder if anyone on the Warwickshire board is offering lookups at the record office or perhaps you could contact the records office as you know have her father's name, his occupation, address and exact date of birth for Elizabeth whether they would tell you the maiden name of Caroline without purchasing the certificate I don't know

Here's some contact details for Warwickshire Records Office

Thank you, I have emailed them for help in warwickshire .I will let you know if i hear anything.
I  am wondering if Caroline and David were in Birmingham for the second marriage of Joseph Lowe to Elizabeth Adams and while there they had the Elizabeth Adams i am looking for? Hmmmmmmmmmmm

I believe we are related. James and Susannah are my direct ancestors.
