WHITHAM/CURTIS Mary Ann where are you?
« on: Monday 26 June 17 21:01 BST (UK) »
A widow Mary Ann CURTIS married my grt grandfather Jonas WHITHAM 18.5.1857 at Hull but on 17.8.1862 he married again.  Bigamist you my think but I can not find Mary's death cert.  I have found children born to these two in 1857 and 1866.  So bigamist he surely was.  Can anyone help to find what happened to Mary?
