Can anyone trace Adelaide Springett?

I must offer Paul my heartfelt thanks for taking up Adelaide's story and telling it in such a way as to do justice to her memory. Although I had much of the material, I did not have the expertise to turn those details into a readable narrative. Then along came Paul with the talent and understanding to weave those details into a fascinating story. And what an excellent job he's done.
Thanks again Paul.

Thanks so much for allowing me to do this research. It was both a privilege and pleasure to be able to tell Adelaide’s story. She will forever have a place in my heart.

I totally agree. A really heart wrenching story. Well done Paul

Thanks Lizzie much appreciated

I've said it before, but I had absolutely no idea when I started this thread that it would lead to all this!

Adelaide's picture touched my heart and it's so good to know the rest of her story, even if it's not all rosy (I guess we never thought it would be).

A story that is mirrored in many ways by so many Victorian children, but at least her memory will live on.
