My GGrandfathers sister brought a case against her husband for desertion in 1896 which was dismissed by the 'Bench' as they held there was no legal desertion.
Does anyone know what benefit it would have been to her if she had succeded in her claim? Surely if she had wanted to remarry she would still have needed to go through the divorce process?
She was a seamstress and her husband a stationary engine driver so not exactly 'high society' :D
Many thanks
