Hi

His army records are on Anc* which do give the info of his marriage.

They married: 24th Feb 1916 St Johns Parish Church Guernsey.

She was a widow when they married, and the names given are

Matilda Ann BERNE (this name has a line through it) and then the surname LIHON is after it.

So Berne may have been her birth name and she married a man named LIHON who died, then she married Ernest
