Thanks Kath, you are right ,thats them. Can you find what happens to Ada, she probably marries . Her middle name was Wilson( mothers maiden name) so the N from the census is a mistake. Free bmd has her marriage as 4th quarter 1891 but the chaps are missing from the page. Can you help??

And any leads on Arthur?

I'm not certain but I think this might be Ada married in 1901. I can't check to see if Herbert has the same reference in the complete marriage index because Ancestry bmd's are playing up at the moment:-

Name: Ada W Thomas
Age: 28
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1873
Relation: Wife
Spouse's Name: Herbert V
Gender: Female
Where born: Peterborough, Lincolnshire, England

Civil Parish: Norwich
Ecclesiastical parish: Thorpe St Matthew
County/Island: Norfolk
Country: England

Street address: 57 Thorpe Road

Occupation: Herbert is a Court Servant (district auditor)

Condition as to marriage: married

Education:

Employment status: View Image

Registration district: Norwich
Sub-registration district: East Wymer
ED, institution, or vessel: 36
Neighbors: View others on page
Household schedule number: 31
Household Members: Name Age

Eliza Bradfield 22 - cook (domestic)
Ethel Goff 16 - housemaid
Ada W Thomas 28
Cecil V Thomas 5 - son
Herbert V Thomas 31

Source Citation: Class: RG13; Piece: 1839; Folio: 61; Page: 5.

UPDATE - managed to get into Ancestry and Herbert does have the same marriage reference so this IS your Ada. Herbert's second name is Vaughan.

The marriage reference if you need it:-

Name: Ada Wilson Swain
Year of Registration: 1891
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Edmonton
County: Essex, Hertfordshire, Middlesex
Volume: 3a
Page: 587
