Chile-Cyril Henry Jervis b Q3 1893 Braintree, Essex, England

The above apparently sailed from Liverpool 8 Nov 1950 to Buenos Aires but has recorded future citizenship as being in Chile. He was an engineer and seems to have divorced/separated from his wife to do so. Ethel Lily, his wife died in England 1964.
Is it possible to find out whether he remarried and his death date too?

Thank you ShaunJ,
I hadn't realised that his probate index was shown on Ancestry, must check things better in future. He is the only one of my relations to end up in Chile but a lot went to Argentina in the late 1800's.

1950 wasn't his first trip, here's a reference from 1947:
