My Nan married Ernest Gilham and they divorced in1933. In 1939 register she was living in Chelsea with George Espley who was the co-respondent in the divorce. I can not find a record of their marriage or her death. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. Thanks

On the original of the 1939 Ethel has been written in initially as Espley. This has been crossed through and Gilham written in.

Perhaps a slip of the pen or an assumption?

Can't see a marriage.

I am not seeing a birth or a death registered for a George Espley that fits with the info on the 1939 register.
