How certain are you about a divorce? There is a possible matching couple in 1939.

I have at some time seen the divorce record but it was early on in my family history search and i didn't note the source. Andrew went on to marry again, and married another Sarah, which it is why it looks like they were still married.

I have to say Im baffled why I can not find the source again now. immensely frustrating.

thanks
