151 From "Friend in Deed" by Cyril Clegg (a book about the Refuge Assurance Co. Ltd.)

"Henry Adams,who was born at Hollins End near Sheffield,on March 3rd 1836,The youngest of of a large family who,at the age of nine,commenced work in a Yorkshire coal mine.His Family,to improve their circumstances, moved frequently,living at Masborough,Intake and Wombell Main Colliery,near Barnsley.

Henry Adams had none of the educational advantages enjoyed by the Youth of today,but like so many of the early Refuge Members,he was a devoted Methodist and received his early training at Sunday School.He was a thoughtful man.and working in the mines man under the conditions of those days,the need of the working man to save and protect himself and his family against the misfortunes of accident,disease and death was very apparant to him.

By the time he left the mines at the age of 27 in 1863 to join forces with James Proctor,he had already begun to form his own little local society in South Yorkshire;and in the years that followed until his death in 1906,he successfully developed the business of the Refuge not only in South Yorkshire,but in the Counties of Derby,Lincoln and Nottingham,While his son William Adams pioneered the business in the Birmingham area." 
Adams, Henry (I1277)

183 From The Origin and History of the Primitive Methodist Church, Vol 2.

"Mr. Henry Adams of Sheffield is a pronounced progressive in regard to chapel extension, and his influence and liberality have been a very considerable factor in the development of primitive Methodism in Sheffield and the district. Mr. Adams was born at Hollinsend in '36, and went to Sheffield in '63, some two years after his conversion. In this same year he became an agent for the Refuge Assurance Company, and began what was destined to be one of the most successful careers known to the Assurance world. In this work he discovered and developed his genius for business. For many years now he has been a Director of the Company, for which he was once only an agent. Mr. Adams has been the Steward of Sheffield Fifth since its formation, and for many years he has been recognised as one of the leaders of our Church, in both its District and Connexional Courts, and he was elected Vice-President of the Conferenee of 1883. Mr. Adams has taken a remarkable interest in chapel-building affairs. In Sheffield Fifth, Eighth and Ninth Circuits, and in Hoyland Circuit particularly, our places of worship are memorials of his enterprise and liberality. Mr. Adams' private beneficence is well known, his beneficence is not confined to his own Communion, nor does Mr. Adams' Christian life exhaust itself in officialism. He is exemplary in his attendance at the means of grace even on the week-night and he loves an old-fashioned Methodist prayer-meeting. In all his life-work Mr. Adams has had a willing helper in his devoted wife. "

184 From the Times Colonist for 2 Apr 2008
LONGCROFT, Wendy Gay (nee Selwyn) Wendy passed away on March 23, 2008 after a courageous 14 year battle with breast cancer. Wendy was born in Peshwar, Pakistan on January 16, 1939 and moved to England in 1946, where she met and married Peter. They emigrated to Canada with their children in 1975, living first in Calgary, Alberta and then Sidney, British Columbia. Wendy is survived and will be forever missed by Peter, her devoted husband of 47 years, her son David (and his wife Carrie and their children, Jonathan and Claire) and her daughter Amanda (and her husband Robert Harris and their children, Bryn and Aidan). She is also survived by her brother Jeremy Selwyn and her half siblings Michael Selwyn and Christina Selwyn. Wendy1s love for life was only surpassed by her love for her family. None of us could have had a better caregiver, nurturer, friend or deckhand. She took on the challenge of her disease with her typical selflessness and volunteered for many years at the Victoria Cancer Lodge, caring for others in the face of her own illness. In the last few years of her life, she discovered the excitement of dragon boat racing and found great joy in the camaraderie she shared with her fellow breast cancer survivors on the Island Breast Strokers paddling crew, taking the gold at the world championships in Singapore 2 years ago. Being on the water was nothing new for Wendy. She had spent many boating holidays with Peter and was looking forward to spending more time with their many friends from the Sidney-North Saanich Yacht Club. We would sincerely like to thank Dr. Ewen Cadger, Dr. Sharon Allen, Dr. Jim Wilde and the team of caregivers at both the Victoria Hospice and the Saanich Peninsula Hospital. A private ceremony for the family will be held at this time, with a memorial party to follow later this summer, where we hope that her friends will gather and tip their glasses in honour of a fine lady. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Victoria Walk to End Breast Cancer in the name of Amanda Longcroft. 456453
