Henry Edward Roscoe (born 1873) married Madeline Linsell (born 1874) in 1897 in Fulham. They are present on the 1901 census as a married couple. However, after 1901, I can find no trace of Madeline.

In 1926 and 1928 respectively Henry Roscoe had two children with another woman, claiming he was married to her. Then, in 1929, he married this other woman, saying he was a widow. However I can find no death of a Madeline Roscoe or a Madeline Linsell? I have searched from 1901 right up to 1983. I have also searched marriages of a Madeline Roscoe or Linsell to verify she didn't marry someone else.

Any ideas where she could have gone?

Thanks
