ICG register BMD Q3 1862 west bromwich volume 6b page 783
I have two choices of Samuel Thomas born in Staffordshire - one was in prison in 1861 who was then deported to oz and the other one was living with his sister and her husband listed as married in 1861
so did she divorce one the one living with the sister? Would there be record of the divorce?
If she was married to the one who was sent to Oz would there still be a record of the divorice?
There must have been some kind of divorce to allow her to marry my gt gt gt grandfather in 1862..
This is confusing the hell out of me
