Member Since: June 2005 Posts: 525 Send Message	Thank you everyone for replying to my request for info on Ada Wells, sorry to send you on a wild goose chase over the marriage, did confuse this with the birth, sorry. I take it then that the age at death was 24, was hoping this was a mistake and she was aged 20. Thanks for taking the time to look. Regards Kathleen

	Kathleen Bell, where did you find your marriage in 1917 as I am looking at ancestry and it isn't on there, only one in Hackney. The marriage that Jan found is the only one that fits the birth in 1917

	Saw post (which has now dissapeared) re Wells marriage have looked on FMP but definateley no marriage for a Wells or a Blackwell, Death is there in 1911 but if she died in 1911 how did she marry in 1917? or are they 2 different people? FMP is Find My Past

	Sorry Janet....Findmypast. Suddenly realised I was looking at births instead of marriages, hence thinking that the poster was doing the same thing on freebmd.

	Well done with the birth - that must be it, a slip of the typing finger. FMP - of course, silly me. Thanks. Jan

	No sign of a marriage for Ada Wells in 1917 in Leicester. Maybe some kind of test??? Mary

	Kathleen, you must have the marriage date wrong - easily done when typing, I know. Having said that, i don't see any marriage of an Ada Wells to a Blackwell at any time, or anywhere!! Even phonetically searching surnames. Jan
