It can't be.

Marriages Jun Qtr 1891
Adams William Mile End 1c 627
Webb Sarah Elizabeth Mile End 1c 627


Sarah Elizabeth but just Elizabeth in census.

So where are they in 1911? Did they also go to Australia?

Son Arthur arrived in Australia after 1911 census - 1911-1915 ???

Or have I got the wrong Arthur in 1911. Did the whole family go to Australia between 1901 and 1911?

Is this the same Arthur as the one with family in 1901? Kate is single so how is Arthur a 'son' as an ADAMS not a WHITE like William?

Oh. As of 1915 Arthur's mother was living in Hamstead. So did his father die before 1911? Perhaps his mother was a widow in 1911.

I can't see Sarah/Elizabeth in Hamstead in 1911.


I can't see a Sarah or Elizabeth WEBB born 1853 +/- 2 in Hamstead.

Arthur listed his mother not his father as NOK in 1915. Service record say mother was living in Hamstead in 1915.

I can't find her in 1911.

This looks like the right one:

Deaths Jun Qtr 1907
ADAMS William James N 63 Hampstead 1a 382

Just William in marriage reg and 1901 census but William J here:

NSW Death 40465/1965 ADAMS ARTHUR - WILLIAM J - SARAH E - GOULBURN


Deaths Jun Qtr 1919
Adams Sarah E 67 Hampstead 1a 634

Is this the right marriage considering a son William is 12 in 1901.

Marriages Jun Qtr 1887
ADAMS William James N Edmonton 3a 314
Jupp Sarah Elizabeth L Edmonton 3a 314


According to a tree it's the right marriage.

I still can't find Sarah/Elizabeth in 1911.

If it is them, there is this from the PR's, wrongly transcribed as TUPP.

William James Northorp Adams
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1844
Age: 43
Spouse: Sarah Elizabeth Lawman Tupp
Spouse Age: 34
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 16 Apr 1887
Parish: Edmonton All Saints
Borough: Enfield
Father: Thomas Hewitt Adams
Spouse Father: Henry Tupp
Register Type: Parish Register
[WJNP widower. Occ: Carpenter. Father's occ: Verger :D
SELT spinster. Father's occ: valet.]

Carpenter fits with 1901.

Everything in post #5 seems to be correct so I'd say the marriage to JUPP/TUPP is the right one.

William J and Sarah E.

The tree has JUPP but how can you tell which one was wrongly transcribed? The marriage or the FreeBMD index entry?

The FreeBMD image is a typed page under J.

Arthur is by himself in a single room at Address: 3 Lutton Terrace, Flask Walk, Hampstead in 1911.

Kate WHITE and son William are actually at #2.

Wouldn't like to say, but the FreeBMD is usually correct, but not infallible...
The birth reg on FreeBMD is JUPP.

I don't know if Arthur's brother William also ended up in Australia. Can't check for a death because NSW BMD is off-line this weekend. Unplanned outage and getting to be rather annoying. The only reply they give is that the emails will be forwarded to the web administrator.

Yes and yes.

They have probably out-sourced the service rather than spend the money upgrading their own server. I wonder what will happen in February when 1913 births, 1963 marriages and 1983 deaths are added. :rolleyes:
