Further checking suggests the divorce is not this Edward - the marriage to Alice Marie was in 1874

That's very odd if they were together in 1891 but didn't marry until 1935, just 3 years before he died.

Hi Everyone

Thanks very much for all your input.

This is going to need some serious sorting out and I will have to go back to the chap I am looking at this for, if they were together from 1891, it will make things interesting. The vibe I got was that Edward was marrying way below his station when he married Ada.

I will update when we have had a chance to digest!!!!!

Thanks again.

Regards

IanC

It does seem very odd if that is them in the 1891 as they were both fairly young. Even if one of then was already married, I would have thought that at some point between then and 1935 - more than 40 years, they would have divorced, he must have been able to have afforded it.

An on line article on the castle and family gives Ada's father as William Hoe Bradley?

I can't find an Ada Bradley who fits in any census nor any birth. I see in one census as Ada Taylor she says born Brighton and another London.

Thank you all for your wonderful help with this couple. It looks increasingly lightly that they were living as man and wife from 1886, as I said before, I don't think they married until late in life because Ada would have been considered too lowly born for Edward.

MaureeninNY, did you get the dates 1910 to 1935 for the Electoral Rolls? I could only find them up to 1930.
