Are you sure there was a divorce? It was quite an expensive process then. The only one I've come across circa 1890 was funded by an irate mother-in-law.
Whether things changed in WW1 (for fairly obvious reasons) I don't know, but the only Skillings in the period to apply for a divorce was a "poor person" - it specifically says so on his records.
