Reginald Whittaker Allen divorced Laura May Lilian Allen in 1937, naming co-respondent as William J Beard.
There is no sign of a marriage between Laura and William though...
The child born 1940 (I will remove the name as they may still be living) was presumably theirs but the nature of the indexing suggests they weren't legally married at that point.
Jorose - I cannot believe it has taken me til now to see your reply!! You have literally just given me some of the answers I have been looking for. That Divorce Court File blatantly says Laura was having an affair with William (I sadly had to Google what Co-Respondent means in a divorce). So that makes my idea of William being allowed to see my Nan but under the guise of Uncle Bill correct.
