Plot 935 Ada Mardle (née Ing) (1881-1963)
Ada was born in in Ellesmere Road, Berkhamsted, the sixth child of Alfred and Emma Ing. Her father was a garden labourer, born in Pitstone, her mother was from Berkhamsted.
Ada attended the Berkhamsted National School and in June 1890 received a prize for her needlework.
Ada married Arthur Mardle in Berkhamsted 27 November 1910. He had been a gamekeeper on Tresco in the Isles of Scilly, but had come back to Berkhamsted and was, by then, a jobbing gardener.
He and Ada moved to 7, New Street, Berkhamsted. They were to have two children: Roger Alfred (1912) and Florence Edith (1914).
The 1921 census records yet another career change for Alfred – he was a packer for Cooper & Nephews and the family lived at 5, Manor Street.
They had moved again by 16 March 1938 when Arthur died, aged 67, at 38, High Street.
The 1939 Register records Ada still at number 38 with Roger, a carpenter and joiner, and Florence, a wholesale grocer’s clerk.
Ada remained living in the High Street until her death on 19 August 1963 in St Paul’s Hospital, Hemel Hempstead.
She is buried here with Arthur.
