Yes that's correct. Wondered how that came to be. She was born in Chelsea. Don't think her family lived in the North of England though her half brother Edward was born in Nelson Lancashire which I guess isn't that far from Blackpool.. And Dora violet Adams is not with her family on the 1911census. Think they are in Sussex still.

Hi
Can anyone find the above man on the 1911 census. He was born in Bispham on the fylde (Blackpool) in 1891.
Just trying to figure out how he came to meet his wife Dora Adams born in 1895 in I think Sussex. I am unable to find her on the 1911 census with her parents Frederick George Adams and St p mother Catherine Emma Adams nee Mitchell. They were living in Sussex and as she was still only approx 15had assumed she would be living with them. Can anyone find her on the 1911censuz. Actually she may have been born in chelsea as was her younger sister. She was also known as molly.
Thanks
Shirley :-)
