Help? Jane Wadelin

[Ice Tiger]

I am looking for help with the following people:

Jane Maria WADELIN (nee BUSST)

Frederick Harry WADELIN

Jane Maria Busst (born 1855 in Wolverhampton, England) married Frederick Harry Wadelin (in Warrington, England in 1876).

In 1885 Jane and Frederick Wadelin emigrated to America, arriving on the ship Circassia in New York on 24 November 1885.

I do not have access to US records and would be most grateful if someone could assist with their movements after arrival in America.

I am interested in ANY information regarding them but would dearly love to know. . . 

Any employment details
Place or places of residence in America
Whether they had any children
Their dates and places of death
Whether either/both of them left a will

Thank you for any assistance

Andy

There's a death certificate for Edith, who died 18 Jan 1911, and Mabel, who died 24 Jul 1929, both in Cleveland.  Edith died from a pulmonary embolism related to childbirth.

A possible match from the Florida Death Index:
John Albert Wadelin
Died: 3 Feb 1985
County of Death: Duval 
State of Death: Florida
Age at Death: 68 
Race: White 
Birth Date: 27 Jun 1916

Social Security Death Index:
John Wadelin
Last residence:  Orange Park, Florida
Born: 27 Jun 1916
Died: Feb 1985
SSN issued in Ohio before 1951


Did Frederick have a sister named Mary Jane?  I'm seeing a death certificate for Mary Jane Jones, born 29 Sep 1865 in England, daughter of John Wadelin and Mary Jane Parks, which seems to sort of line up with the parents' names on Frederick's death certificate.  She died 30 Mar 1953 in Warren, Ohio.

In the 1920 Census, there is this entry, which I think might be Benjamin.

Columbus, Ohio, Institution for Feeble-Minded
Wadelin, B. Arthur, male, white, age 26, single, born Ohio, parents born England, inmate in institution

There is a WWI Draft Registration Card for Arthur Wadelin.  Born 1893 (month and day not listed) in the US.  Home address:  1048 E. 70th St., Cleveland, Ohio.  Inmate, single, Caucasian.  Claims exemption due to feeble-mindedness.  Medium build and height, gray eyes, brown hair.  It was written "Person is feeble-minded and unable to fill out card."  It was filed at Institution for Feeble-Minded, Columbus, Ohio.

In the Ohio Death Index:
Arthur B. Wadelin
Born abt. 1893
Male, white

Died 9 May 1978, St. Vincent Charity Hospital, Cleveland
Age 85 at death
No autopsy

There are brief obituaries for Frederick, Jane, John A., and Mabel here:  http://dxsrv4.cpl.org/WebZ/Authorize?sessionid=0&next=/html/obit.html&dbchoice=1:dbname=necr&bad=html/authofail.html&style=noframe  It also appears that there was a sister Blanche (married name Handy) in the family with an obituary from Jun. 26, 1971.  There is a reference to an obituary for Arthur B. Wadelin here:  http://www-catalog.cpl.org/CLENIX

Here's Blanche on the 1900 Census:  http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/oh/cuyahoga/census/1900/ed069/ed069p01.txt  I believe it was the same street that the Wadelins were living on.
