Hi,
I was just looking for opinions on how possible it would be for a couple in Rotherham/Sheffield to have divorced between these years? I have a lady in my tree who married in Sheffield in March 1923 (have the cert). The couple had a child in the September quarter of the same year so clearly already pregnant. I have found no other children to this marriage but she marries again in 1937 in Rotherham. In the indexes, she is listed under both her maiden name and married name. I have found no death for the first husband but I have found a marriage in Sheffield in 1936 of someone with the same name which left me wondering if they had divorced and both had re-married. The lady died in Rotherham in 1954 at the home her parents lived at (according to her burial record which was for a cemetery in Sheffield).
Opinions much appreciated
Claire
