Alices first husband was supposed to had been killed by a horse where he worked as an Ostler at the Goodwood Estate, we are not sure if this is a fact orf fiction

Alice has remarried by 1909 so i am hoping that she is still at Goodwood with the husband ???? who may be called John Broom showing on the 1901 census

An estate such as Goodwood will have records going back well into time.

They have a Curator so you could contact her.

Marriage Cert in 1909 for 2nd marriage says Alice Broom, widow 38 looks like it says father John Brown but it could be Broom as it is not clear.

I have only this info from a very old distand relative
who said when her husband was killed the evicted her for the new ostler to move in but not sure if any of this is true until i investigate
thank you all anymore ideas
