Norman was the husband of Mary Alice Adair.
Philadelphia birth records show Norman's birth November 20, 1885, son of James and Ella Hannah. His draft records give his middle name of Knight but cards for both WWI and WWII gives his date of birth as November 28.
It is surely him as his wife is named and her address for the WWI card is 486 Minerva Street in Roxborough. He seems to live apart from her, listing his own address as 1337 N 12th in Philadelphia. He lists 1885 as his year of birth, but on his WWII card he lists 1886 as his birth year, the date of November 28 staying consistent. (486 Minerva was his wife's mother's address, so she may have been staying with her mother for some reason, her mom's health or perhaps her own pregnancy?)
The couple was together for later censuses and on his WWII draft card at 7138 Bingham Street in Philadelphia where he works for PECO. On his WWI card he was a printer's helper at Budd Company.
He appears on the census of 1910 as son of James and nephew of Margaret, working as a driver for a laundry, while his father was a machine hand at a paper mill- perhaps where he indirectly met up with the Adairs since Robert Adair worked as a paper maker.
He married Mary Alice in 1912 according to the Philadelphia marriage index.
