Have you found Isabella after the 1861 census?
I can't seem to spot her after she witnessed Adelaide's marriage in 1866.

Am so relieved to hear Adelaide was respectable looking! Probably looked like an innocent cherub. Reading the remark of her father that she was of very eccentric habits has triggered off a memory.
I used to hear my dad tease my Mum about 'mad arthur'. I met Arthur when I was 13/14, he was living with his and Aunt Jessie's sister - Aunt Maude. We turned up unannounced to Maude's home in Dublin. Arthur was home alone. White hair down past his shoulders wearing white gloves (apparently he only took them off to play the piano). I gathered up courage (as my Dad was there) would he play for me please. He was delighted until he found the instrument was locked. Aunt Maude had taken the key out with her! He was offered a situation with a Philly Orchestra until it was discovered he could not sight read. This gift still appears in the Spence cousins today.
Aunt Maud as far back as 1958 at my dad's funeral was telling everyone in hearing that the Kaiser owed her 4 years salary for her husband. His ship was in Hamburg when WW1 broke out and he was imprisoned for 4 years. No pay but she was adamant he owed her! I reckon there is a streak of eccentricity in the Spence lot.

I had a long thank you piece and just minutes ago instead of edit I hit delete!
Adelaide was the sister of my g.gmother Isabella Jane Middleton (b. Camberwell 1855/56) who married Robert Spence b. Dublin a foundry and marine engineer. His father and two uncles owned a foundry, Spence Bros, sited next door to Guiness Works. Mentioned before are Arthur, Jessie and Maud were 3 of Isabella's children. My mother was named Isabella Jane Spence after her g.mother.
I am so delighted to have got through this brick wall and by the looks of it the other research had no idea of Adelaide's sister existing.
Thanks everyone for your help. :-D :-D :-D
