Although there are some obvious discrepancies I’m pretty convinced that this is the Ada Moth that AnnieP has been searching for.

I do agree, Jen.
Just a feeling that there must be something extra out there to make it more certain. So that Ada gets her chapter in Annie's book!

Yes, that was such an interesting topic, and lovely to be involved in - Davy made it all great fun as well. Some sad bits in there too of course.
I think with this one we are nearly there...

You will all be pleased to know that I have today posted a request to the National Records of Scotland for an extract from the 1939 Register for Ada Young. Cross your fingers that her date of birth will be  the 4 Jun 1871. I shall be so upset if this isn't her after all the hard work contributed by everyone.
I did remember to send a copy of her death certificate!

Oh my goodness I just found this on the 1939 register in Mynyddislwyn, Monmouthshire  :(  :(  Only 6 miles from Bargoed.

Dates of birth are all wrong but....

Charles Young, born 23rd February 1875, Lay evangelist
Olive Young born 2nd October 1881, unpaid domestic duties.

Definitely, you'll all be the first to be told. Mind you it may be that you will hear the loud shriek coming from the Chichester direction first!
I've just seen the new post about a Charles and Olive Young in the 1939 register. This is all so complicated. Are there two marriages - Charles and Olive Young and Manton and Ada Young?
