Seems to be a little hiccup here. FreeBMD shows Ada Sophia Kite marrying Thomas Wing, June Qtr 1872, Hatfield and she is shown on the 1881 census living with her parents William H Kite & Louisa S Kite at the workhouse, shown as a widow. Back to the diggings! Must go back and check my certificates, census etc. Ahah, but I see, she was a widow when John Kite married her - all's not lost after all! Double check though. Cheers Graham
