Ada Mary Trapp

[smeni]

Part of my family research is trying to find Ada Mary, who was born in 1844 in Southwark.  She married around 1875 and subsequently lived in Camberwell, where she is listed on 1881 census as a widow with one son Frank aged 4 years and her sister Amy, who is 7 years younger than Ada.  The surname on the census is Edmunds, but later on, on 1901 census it is Eidmans - the name I am researching.   I cannot find a birth record, or a record of a marriage, so can't track down which Eidman/s she did marry, if indeed they ever were married!  Can anyone help please?

She is registered on Free BMD as Ida Mary Trapp- June 1843.
As you say there is no marriage on Free BMD for any variation of the name either.
In a rather crude way of checking, I have looked at marriages for variations of Edmunds 1871-1881 and deaths for same to compare (Camberwell only) but nothing comes up.
There is a Joseph Stayner Eidmans marriage 1876 but spouses are there and no Ada.

Hi Smeni,
I have looked at the full indexes 1874-77 and cannot see a marriage for Ada.
The birth certificate for Frank would have his father's name.

best wishes
