Francis Adie (b. abt 1825 in Colton, Staffordshire) married Margaret (b. abt 1828 in Rugde, Shropshire) somewhere around 1858 if the birth of their daughter Clara Jane is anything to go by. Clara was born in Bilston in 1859: I have found an IGI entry for Clara's birth but interestingly, or is it confusingly, her parents are listed as
Thomas and Margaret Adie.

But who was Margaret. Can anyone shed any light on this?
I did find another IGI entry for Francis Adie marrying Margaret Birch in Colton on 29 July 1823 - could this have been Francis' (1825) mum & dad? (I have not managed to make a positive link.)
However, beware ... following Margaret's death in 1866, Francis remarries in 1878. This time it is to Margaret Ann Jones - what is it about Francis Adies and Margarets.
