I think I may have found him on the IOW 1907-1972 but alas his will listing does not mention any one. The amount of money fits with this family though.

Hi

Not much help but I can see them in 1946 & 1947 - the couple were in Kensington at Wynnstay Gardens from the Electoral Registers.

So were they divorced or was she a widow when she remarried?

Do not know. The Catholic in me would like her to be a widow. The possible of Arthur John 1907 Paddington to 1972 IOW lends towards widow.

Yes, that would make sense if she remarried on the IOW 4 years later.
