Find Ancestors

Hi
John was born 20th July 1904 On the footpath in Lever Street states the birth cert.
Mother Ellen Adams of 29 Bastwick Street a Charwoman. Sub district Finsbury Reg district Holborn. I have the birth certificate and details confirmed by his death certificate which I have 3rd April 1985 St Pancras Hospital, Camden. I have found nothing else as yet except an old family tree which is in the family possession which has the name Harry Hunt at the side of Ellen/Nellie Adams with children John Adams, Nellie Hunt and Harry Hunt.
If you can help with anything here that would be great.
Many Thanks
Dave

Marvellous :-) :-D
I am looking again for the 1911 census to see if there is a connection between Nellie, Harry Hunt and the other two children I mentioned. Hopefully this might take me back to records for Nellie.
