I've been reading about these divorces mentioned on the list.  I once looked up the history of the "divorce" process, a task that made my wife somewhat nervous.  But it was interesting because I had seen people discussing it on the Lincolnshire mailing list. You can see my findings at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~englin/divorce.htm It includes a discussion of "Wife sales".  I assume that these are no longer allowed in Nottinghamshire, as well.     Lou
