Also bear in mind that most people could not afford to divorce at that time. They might just have gone ahead and married again. |

If he second marriage occured while the first wife was still alive then it would have been illegal-not valid-so would a divorce have been needed ? |

The second 'marriage' was not valid, so no divorce would have been necessary |

So what has late 1800s to early 1900s got to do with these people who married in the 1960s? |

Many thanks for the help. I don't need anything after the mid 30's - I think the UK National Archives are what i am looking for. |
