Florence Mary Wood (formerly Edwards) b 1884

[NormanE]

Florence Mary Edwards married Walter James Wood in 1904. Five children were born to the marriage in Gloucester and the last record I can find of Florence is at a 1913 Gloucester baptism.
Help finding Florence after 1913 would be appreciated.

For background help

There is a tree on Ancestry regarding the daughter: Olive May WOOD - born 22 May 1906 Gloucestershire, parents: Walter James WOOD  1884 and Florence Mary EDWARDS 1884

At the age of 22: Olive, had a Son, Robert WOOD born March 1929, Lambeth London  (Family Search, Robert G WOOD)

Then married Ernest Joseph SIMPSON born c 1883 : September 1929, Lewisham.

Olive died March 1998, Croydon.


? May be the marriage certificate has more information regarding her father/witnesses etc.

? The family could have emigrated -

Why do you believe she was born in 1884, as free bmd shows a possible birth for her in December quarter 1885 in Ross.

Thank you for the interest and ideas for further search.
Unfortunately I am no further forward with my quest for Florence Mary. I have managed to follow some of Walter and Florence's  children in the records, they will of course all have died.
I know that Walter had a further relationship which produced a large family. Family talk says his new partner came to look after the children (implying Florence had left) and stayed. The same talk says Walter and partner searched unsuccessfully for Florence to seek a divorce.
I live in hopes
Again thank you all for your interest
