Title: William Thomas Adams,death between 1891 and 1901.
Post by: gracol on Sunday 01 March 26 20:04 GMT (UK)

The 1891 census shows William T Adams,31,in Penge,with his wife Emily.
In 1901 Louisa E (Emily) Adams is a widow,again in Penge.same road.
I cannot seem to find his death record,a family tree on Ancestry shows  his death as 7 Sept 1892 Penge ??
Help please.

A William Adams did die on 7.9.1892 but he died in Norfolk

Thanks for the reply CaroleW.
A bit confused,the 1891 census shows Parish of Penge and Borough of Dulwich ?

Many thanks for the reply CaroleW,on Ancestry Croydon RD is not on the census itself,but it  is shown on the preview,hadn't noticed that.
Thanks again.
