Family Ada Maria VOGWELL, b. 28 Oct 1872, Linkinhorne, Cornwall, England 
, d. Yes, date unknown Married Sep Q 1903 Devonport Reg Dist, Devon, England - GRO ref: Vogwill, Ada Maria to HARRIS, William John q3 1903 Devonport RD 5b 765
Using the 1911 census a couple can be found to fit if William rather than the other groom on the page (Polgrean, John) was the one who married Ada (the 1911 census entry fits on names, but no middle names, length of marriage, abode - where marriage was - and Ada's age, but birthplace is different: Chilsworthy, Cornwall. Not to be confused with Chilsworthy in Devon (about 25 miles north of Linkinhorne and in a different registry district), this is about 8 miles east of Linkinhorne and about a mile west of Gunnislake; it is where the family were resident by the time of Ada's baptism. If Linkinhorne is correct as Ada's birthplace, given she was in Chilsworthy by the time she reached the age of 3 months the confusion is understandable.
More children were born with the surname HARRIS, mother's maiden name Vogw(e/i)ll, all in Pontypridd RD. I suspect these were from a different family as the last was born in 1924 when Ada would be a little old to still be having children.
