Benjamin Wrigley of Harpurhey
« on: Monday 23 July 12 20:35 BST (UK) »
I am trying to solve a 90 year old family mystery regarding the disappearance of Benjamin Wrigley b 29/1/1889 Harpurhey, son of Benjamin Wrigley and Sarah Jane Richards. he married Mary Ellen Savage in 1908 and she obtained a judicial separation from him in1923 in Manchester. After that he appears to have disappeared and our family has looked but never found any trace of him. If anyone has any suggestions as to where to look that would be great, but there is no death record in the UK or the US.  His occupation was in dentistry/dental services.

I have never found a Benjamin Wrigley (no middle name) that fits. he was not divorced either, just legally separated from Mary Ellen his wife
