Title: census lookup for Adaway family
Post by: sue1 on Tuesday 08 May 07 22:38 BST (UK)
I would be most grateful if someone can do a census lookup for the years 1891 and 1901
William James Adaway born 1866, married Louisa Phipps, born 1871. They were married 1888. Would be interested to see who lived in the household. I think it will be the Croydon area.

Thank you
Susan

Hi Susan
There is no Lily Adaway in the Croydon area.

But there is a death of
Lily Florence ADAWAY June 1893, Croydon.

I will still post the other ADAWAY families.

yes that is spot on. I have been on the wrong track but yes I was told her name was lilian but convinced myself it was lily. I have not been able to find Lilians birth either. Never mind that has helped a lot.

Thank you
Susan

I have just found the details of George and Marthas marriage too. Lilian actually married James Barnett in 1913 and on reading the bmd it shows him as marrying a Lily E. I am sure that it is the correct people though. Could it have been a misprint?

or it could be Elizabeth Lilian born Sep 1895, Croydon    :-\

Yes I think you are right I have just found it on the bmd.

Thanks a lot for all your trouble I really appreciate it.
