	The marriage certificate of James and Florence would show him as a widower or divorced. If divorced, his previous wife's name and maiden name should be shown. Gwyn

	Just register with Ancestry and you can search the bmd records. They are completely free. Once you find the groom, with the bride's surname, you can cross refer entries. This assumes the marriage took place in England/Wales Reg
