| According to her birth certificate, Jane was born at 21 Upper Market Street, Woolwich.
Jane's birthplace was shown to be Woolwich in the 1851 and 1861 censuses. Oddly enough, her birthplace in the 1871 census was shown to have been Middlesex, but this must have been an error because the census place was correct. Blackheath was shown to be her birthplace in the 1881 census - but this includes Woolwich I believe. (NOTE that there was a Jane Elizabeth Adams baptised on 19th September 1851 at Christ Church, St Marylebone, but the father of this Jane Elizabeth Adams was called James and not Joseph)
In the 1851 census, a Jane Adams, aged just 11 months, was described as being a visitor staying at 4 Artillery Place in Woolwich with a George Burgess (who was aged 28 at the time and had been born in Woolwich) and his wife Fanny, who was aged 25 and was born in Gibraltar. Their own son William Burgess (aged 3) had been born in Gibraltar. So it seems likely that Jane's father, Joseph Adams, and George Burgess had been in the army together in Gibraltar. The Burgesses may not have known that Jane had the middle name Elizabeth, because this is not shown in the census. At this time, her mother (Jane Adams) was working as a cook at 64 Oxford Terrace, Marylebone with her unmarried younger sister Elizabeth, who worked there as a nursemaid.
In the 1861 census, a Jane E Adams (now aged 10 and born in Woolwich, Kent) was recorded as being a scholar who was boarding at a house in Enfield Town that was occupied by a John Tuff (60) and his wife Sophia (56). John was described as being a chemist/druggist and an author of historical articles. Their daughter Sophia (26) was a teacher and Clara Wynch? (aged 15, from Cambridgeshire and also boarding) was described as being a "pupil teacher". Also in the household was a grandson (Thomas J Reynolds, aged 11) and a servant called Sarah Breden (24) from Enfield. I have not been able to find Jane Elizabeth's mother in the 1861 census, so cannot explain what she was doing at school in Enfield.
Concerning John Tuff: In the Enfield Observer of 1 January 1863, the following advertisement appeared: 'Mr.James Hunter, dentist . . . attends at Mr. Tuff's Chemist from 10 to 4 p.m.' (Bayford G
(1975) Pharmaceutical Journal 214, 517). In the 1871 census David Coales, writer for the press, was listed as being a lodger with John Tuff, pharmaceutical chemist of Enfield (Pharmaceutical Journal 1975). The latter was presumably the same person as the dentist's landlord.
At the time of her marriage to Charles in 1872, Jane was living at 23 Suffolk Street in London, which is quite close to St Martins in the Fields where they were actually married. This was shown as her residential address on the marriage certificate. And it was at this same address the previous year, as recorded in the 1871 census, that Jane Adams was living with her (presumably now twice?) widowed mother Jane Brown, who was hotel keeper here. As this was a small private hotel, perhaps this was where Charles John Cadogan met her when he was visiting London as a commercial traveller. At the time of their marriage, Charles was staying just around the corner at the British Hotel, presumably the one in Cockspur Street. The fact that both Charles and Jane Brown were both born in Brecon seems a strange coincidence, if this is indeed what it was.
There is a brief record of the death of Jane E Cadogan in 1902 at the National Archives in Kew, but I have yet to obtain her death certificate. She was probably worn out after having had 11 children! She is recorded on the memorial stone erected for Charles John at Llandaff cathedral in 1924, along with two of their young children . . . .
In loving memory of Charles John Cadogan died Jan 18th 1924 aged 76 years. Also Jane Elizabeth his beloved wife died May 14th 1902. Aged 51 years. Also of their children Winifred Baskerville died Dec 18th 1898 aged 6 years and of Kitty who died in infancy. "Thy will be done" |
