NotesA birth registration was found for Ada Florence Bradshaw: Year of Registration: 1889; Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep; District: Greenwich; County: Greater London, Kent, London; Volume: 1d; Page: 1077.

Sent to Canada as her family could not look after her. Ada was born out of wedlock and was cared for by her grandfather, Edwin. He became unwell and was too ill to care for Ada. As a result Ada was sent to the Barkingside Girls' home and was under the care of Barnardo's homes.

Her mother also had several other children (some also illegitimate). Some were placed in the care of Sutton Schools.

In 1891, Ada Bradshaw, 1 year of age, was residing at 95 Roan Street, Greenwich, London, England.

(Source: 1891 Census of England; Class: RG12; Piece: 509; Folio 14; Page 21; GSU roll: 6095619.)

In 1901, Ada Bradshaw, 11 years of age, was residing at Barnardos Home, Barkingside and Ilford, Essex, England. (Source: 1901 Census of England; Class: RG13; Piece: 1652; Folio: 97; Page: 34.)

In 1901, Ada Bradshaw, 11, arrived in Quebec, Canada, along with a group of 99 Barnardo children en route to Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, accompanied by Mr. Owen.

In 1911, Ada Bradshaw, 22, was shown as a servant / domestic for Jas Lauder and family 28 Rosehill Avenue, Toronto, York South, Ontario, Canada. Her date of birth was shown as August 1888 and her immigration year as 1891.

On December 25, 1912, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, a marriage was registered between Ada Bradshaw, 23, born in England, daughter of Edward and Sarah Bradshaw; and Alfred [Joshiah] Jerrome, 36, driver, born in England, son of George Jerrome and Phoebe Jane North.
