About Cecil Adams

This individual comes from a hand-drawn family tree in the Buchanan family, which would suggest that he lived beyond childhood although no records have been found online to indicate what became of him.

Cecil Adams was baptised in the parish of Braddan, on the Isle of Man, on 2 June 1867, according to a record (original not viewable) at www.imuseum.im, which states that his parents were James Adams (school master) and Ann Lalor Adams (maiden name: Nixon), of Douglas.

He might have had the middle name Walter, according to another line of the family. A Cecil Walter Adams died on 16 April 1939, aged 72, leaving a widow, Florence Mary. Their home was in Ponsonby, Auckland. This couple had several children. No proof found that this is the same Cecil Adams born on the Isle of Man. Sight of a marriage record would help to establish who his parents were.
