Parents
         Father: 
         Mother: Mary Ann COOK [3736] (1861-1939) 

Notes
General:
Fathers name unknown.

Ada was christened with Gustavas Adolphus William James Herbert Edward Kelly named as the father and her surname registered as Kelly.

A tree on Ancestry.com has Ada May COOK marrying a William George Landells, however, I am not sure that Ada May would be using the surname of Cook as her birth was registered as Best so this data may be inaccurate. There is also a marriage in 1896 of Ada Best to Herbert Edwards. Another person has her death as 1909 at Castlemaine, but I have been unable to find a matching death. Ada is listed as 54 years of age on her mother's death certificate, so I assume she was still alive in 1939. Yet another person has her death in 29 September 1965 in Coburg, Vic. This requires further investigation.

William George Landells and Ada May Cook had the following children:-

1 George William Landells b. Coburg 1 Sep 1904 - 29 Feb 1988
2 Ada Margaret Landells b. Coburg 1906 - 3 Jul 1985 Coburg
3 Wallace Charles Landells B Coburg 2 Jul 1908 - 11 May 1989 Brighton
4 Stanley Gordon Landells b. Coburg 13 sep 1910 - 9 Sep 1974 Heidelberg
5 Ethel Sarah Landells b. Coburg 24 Nov 1913 - 11 Apr 1994, Vic
