NOTE: This is a TEMPORARY WEBSITE ONLY, and is meant as a stopgap until the Main Website has been updated. Some of the notes are incomplete and many of the links will not work. There is still much data to add and conflicts to settle.

This tree has been compiled with the help of many contributors. Sincere thanks to all, and apologies to those whose information has not yet been added.

I have tried to verify as much information as possible but errors may exist. Individuals with uncertain details have a (see notes) label attached to their name.

If photos exist, they will be found in the individual's Scrapbook. Click the "ScrapBook" link in the left menu for a list. Scrapbooks can only contain a limited amount of text so I am now adding more presentable feature pages containing notes, photos and links. These pages are shown to the right of their Scrapbooks, but are presently very few. NOTE: The Main Menu (Top Left) will not work when you are in a scrapbook. You will have to use your browser's BACK button to exit or use the "Exit Scrapbook" link below or here.

Details and photos of individuals labelled as living are automatically filtered out of the Tree, however a separate list is available here for living people who have permitted or asked for their details to be published.

If you do find errors, conflicts or would like to update your line please let me know. Webmaster

Notes from Ross Vicars: (Nov 2002)
Adin left Brenchley in the 1880's and went to Rhodesia. There he was in the Mounted Police and later moved to Pretoria where he ran a draper's store. He enlisted during the Boer War and had the distinction of being (with Col Lionel James) the first people out of Ladysmith when the relief came.
The effects of Ladysmith affected him greatly and he returned to England in 1900.

Extracts from Col. Lionel James' autobiography, mentioning Adin, can be found Here

He married in 1901 and in 1902 bought his first shop in Yalding - the building is now called Adin Coates house and is the Library. Further shops followed and by the 1930's he had businesses in Yalding, Edenbridge, Tenterden, Leigh and Rye.
The businesses were run by his four sons but he remained at the helm for many years - he was still Chairman and attending board meetings at 97.
He died in 1969 aged 100 and is buried with Bertha in Yalding Cemetery - just yards away from his first shop. The Tenterden shop still carries his name and although the premises are still family owned, no members of the family remain connected to the business.

His second wife "Aunt Gerry" as we called her - was in fact Grace Moon and was related (cousin) to his first wife Bertha. I also remember an "Aunt Babs" who was a great friend and cousin of my Grandmother Madeline - Babs was a nickname and she was also called Bertha Moon.
Update from Ross, December 2002:
Mum now recalls that Gerry (Grace) was related to the Norman side of the family - not the Moon. She is still sure that Gerry's mother was called Adelaide and thinks she married one of Sarah Jane's brothers. I know that Sarah Janes parents were William and Eliza (he was a tenant farmer in Waldron near Uckfield) but that is all I have - I know of no brothers or sisters but have not really researched that line of the family


Bertha Moon
