Not seeing a marriage for Harvey to Ethel in 1923? what name did she marry under?

re divorces http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/divorce/

Ethel May Castle b14.05.1897 Fulham d ??.12.1977 Enfield - m Henry Warneford Cresswell in Bromley ??.10.1919 and then m to Harvey Willie Curner (1893-1937) in Kensington 1923. He then married Florence Beatrice Gowing in Wandsworth in June 1932. Ethel had two daughters Ethel May Margaret and Catherine Joan. I can find no records of Ethel's or Harvey's divorces. I believe that Ethel had another Daughter in 1924 named Hilda and that there was also a son. Can anyone fill in the gaps? Ethel was my maternal grandmother.
