Thanks Betty. She must be Sarah Jane Crampton.

That fits with the years married on the 1911 Census.

I can't find a likely death for William & another marriage for Sarah Jane, so that theory has hit a brick wall! I wonder if the authorities found out about the bigamous marriage & she went to prison, perhaps she changed her name upon being released.
I'll try looking for her under her maiden name, after that I'm out of ideas.

I tried looking for her with her other names but no success. She could have been mistranscribed though. She could have also given a different place of birth. if I have  the right Trim family, the children were born in different places. She may not have lived in Ashling very long.

She was baptised in Funtington, Sussex.
Nothing would surprise me, she lied about her age at her first marriage, lied about being a widow & her age again on her second marriage.
