i love the comment about not leaving anything else to his wife at her request .

ada  ella WHITELY s will simply bequethed everything to Albert Adair WHITELEY
She's listed as widow
* Calling him her son .not adopted son !

it is witnessed by Robert Frew

i wonder if he was actually  her birth son
Robert FREW considers him his adopted son but acknowledges that there was no official adoption.

A few details :
1.The address of Ada given as 72 west Cromwell road is the same address as 64 Cromwell road .
The numbering must have changed .

 2 )Who was Reginald Whiteley who was with her on earlier electoral role .

3) who is the wife Robert FREW refers to in will regarding the oil painting .. he'd need divorced from Evelyn Rawlings nee CHAPLIN for decades ..did he mean Ada as his common law wife ?

4) what are initials of PROCTOR  the medical officer of Vancouver British Caledonia
# was   he Dr.Arthur Percival PROCTOR ?

£10 to his sister Mary & £10 to her daughter Mary ..I have no record of her so presumably born after 1911

What about her other children Ellen Florence b1911+ son Robert Frew MCKIE b1907
