My Great Grandfather (Joseph Adams) married Emma on 31st October 1878. I have since discovered that they had 6 Children - Thomas, Robert, Joseph, Francis, Mary Jane & Albert George. Albert was born in March 1886 - and just one month later - Emma died on 24th April 1886. I have a copy of her death certificate which under cause of death reads "drowned herself whilst in an insurmountable state of mind". Her grave stone is still present at the church in Church Leigh, Staffordshire. Joseph re-married in 1887 to Maria Slater - with whom he had a further 10 Children - the youngest of whom was my Grandfather (Alfred Adams)- who sadly passed away over 10 years ago now.
I've only just started my research into my family history - and am amazed at how many others are doing the same.
I live in Shrewsbury in the UK. Hope this message gets through okay - i appreciate some time has passed since the last message.
Best regards,
David Adams

I posted a message a while ago asking about Isabella Florence Charlesworth, born abt. 1888 in USA, and moved to Canada in 1899.... I just found a marriage record for her which lists her parents as George Harry Charlesworth, born in England 1853, and Isabella Still, born in Mono Canada in 1851. They were married in Toronto in 1879.
Does anybody know about this family? I would like to know if Isabella Florence had any siblings besides her brother Albert and what took the family from Canada to the US and back to Canada.... Please let me know if you recognize these names!
