Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley
Adamina Mary Gould was born in 1872 – the daughter of Alexander Gold/Gould and Mary Elizabeth Williams, who also signed the petition.
In 1894 Adamina married Albert Hilder Andrews Spears but the marriage did not seem to go well as Albert appeared to marry again in 1896, as a bachelor.
When Adamina’s mother died in 1908 she was a 'widow'.
Adamina appears again in 1918 as Adamina M Fuller marrying George Lazenby in Yorkshire, England.
She died in 1954 in Yorkshire. Her sister Anne Herd also signed the petition.
