    Would someone be kind enough to check an Ontario marriage, please?

    According to familysearch.org, Sophronia Graham married Robert Mumford 17 Nov 1873 at Aldborough, Elgin County, Ontario.
    It adds she was the daughter of John & Sarah Mills.
    Was Sophronia a widow??

    I have Edward Graham marrying Sophronia Mills (daughter of John & Sarah Mills and born c1845)on 17 May 1870.
    I've located the couple in 1870 census, but can't find them after that.

    So, I'm now wondering if Edward (born c1846) died between 1870 and 1873 and his widow remarried - this would explain why I can't find them!
    (Age of bride and names of bride's parents seem to match at both marriages.)
    Please don't spend any time investigating further on Sarah - it is Edward Graham I am chasing, but he is only a twig. Would be nice to "kill him off", though.
