ADAMS in Bordesley

master brummie
I have a marriage certificate for William Edward Adams (b1888) and Ada Rebecca Bradley (b1887), married 30/01/1915. He was lodging at her parents' house in Bordesley at the time of the marriage, I have no idea where he was born. His father is recorded as Charles Frederick Adams, a miller journeyman, no idea where he was born either. William Adams died in November 1926 and is buried in Yardley cemetery. I have a letter of condolence from his sister, Sophia (married to Arthur Lacon), to his widow, address in Holloway, London.
At the time of the marriage, William (Bill) worked as a Corporation Tram Conductor. I also have a letter of condolence from Birmingham City Transport.
Can anyone shed any more light on this man, his background etc? Is anyone else looking for this family?
