Leah/Ada/Rose's father is on the 1881 as a Tin work plater and is dead by 1891 - possible he joined the army and the family went to South Africa. I think one of the Boer wars was about this time.

The only certain way way is to trace Adeline's parentage back, but with that name hopefully can't go wrong! I see where you have got this from, but are you wondering if she was from his 1st or 2nd marriage? Imposible to tell without finding her father:

Looks like Aaron to me, but Jane isn't married to Honorius yet so need to think! Looks like Littlier on image though not very clear. Jane is head of household. I'm a bit dubious about this really.

Back to basics for a minute - I can't see Adeline's birth? Did find this (accidentally put wrong surname) but doesn't make any sense:

Births Jun 1883 (>99%)
ROWLEY Adeline Stoke T. 6b 207

Might be too early on Sunday, need another cuppa.
