Wouldn't the Death certificate have some information as to the relationship? There again, it probably says 'wife', but whether this is accurate or not couldn't be stated from the certificate. Again, the information is reliant on the person registering the death. Whether any putative marriage took place in a non-conformist church is immaterial. The event still had to have been registered and should appear on the GRO. A check of the records for the two likeliest local offices (Basford and Ecclesall Bierlow) might be worth pursuing. It's always possible that the event didn't make its way from the local office to the GRO in the quarterly return. Based on what I can see on-line, I would have to say that there was no marriage. -- Regards, Mike Fry Johannesburg
