Have you got them on any census returns. If so which ones show them as married and then him as a widow? If you can tie it down to between two census returns then you can narrow down the years to search and make it easier to spot a possible match. Also bear in mind that (depending where they were) she may have died in England or in Scotland, the census returns might be your best bet to narrow down the possible search area as well as years.
