Strangely neither William George ADEY nor his first wife Emily appear in Mrs. Patterson’s listing of grave stone inscriptions. But the interment of William George ADEY took place (source NWN) "in the family grave, within a few yards of the Cemetery Chapel, where the deceased's first wife was buried".  Emily was buried on 10 June 1878 as recorded in the cemetery’s account book.

Devizes and Wiltshire Gazette thurs 23 Sept 1863  gives Marriage  “On Thursday, at St. Peter’s Church, Marlborough, by the Rev. Prebendary Tufnell, Mr Wm. George ADEY, of Newbury to Miss Emily, youngest daughter of Mr. H Seymour, of Marlborough, tallow-chandler

William George ADEY’s second wife was Anna Carnell "the widow of the late Mr. William Henry Carnell, of Glastonbury".   They were married at St John’s Church Glastonbury 7 July 1881.  Anna does not appear to be buried in NRC and died q4 1915 age 75 (death reg. in Newbury)
