Hi - Yes, in 1892 Matilda and Thomas Lees appear in a Divorce Court index and we found Matilda's petition for divorce. The reasons for the divorce are "adultery coupled with cruelty toward petitioner". You are right about divorce being unusual pre 1930's so very unusual to come across a Divorce during this period?
