Are there Divorce Records..?

[chich]

One of my Aunts was married several times...i was wondering if there were records kept ?

The simple answer is yes. However, it depends when the divorces happened as to whether you'd be able to get access to the details.

I am looking at the 1930 to 1950 era....

I ordered last night from National Archives Divorce proceedings for my Dads Cousin who I called Auntie from 1936 I think I should receive them tonight as I ordered them to arrive digitally and they cost me £8.50 I could have paid more and received them in 4 hours but chose to wait.

I just put her name into the National Archives search engine and they came up, depends how unusual the name is if you have to trawl through them or not.

Good luck

Regards

If you search the National Archives site here: Detecting your browser settings

and put J77 in the Department or Series Code box, and the surname you're looking for in the Word or Phrase box it will bring up any relevant divorces for that name. If it's a common surname, include one of the forenames as well.
