The Common Room / Edith Anne Waring (nee Greenfield) - what happened next?
« on: Monday 19 October 20 12:55 BST (UK) »
Hi all,
I am currently trying to untangle the life of Charles Henry Waring (bn 1888), and his wife Edith (bn 1893).
Charles and Edith married in 1917, had a child in 1918, and divorced in 1930. The divorce papers have not been digitised (link is here https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C8060956), so I can't view them and so I am having to rely on other methods to find out what happened to Edith. The co-respondent is named as Claude P Dansey. The only Claude Dansey who I can find is the MI6 one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_Dansey and I don't believe he was overly interested in women.
Other than the divorce link, the last sighting I have of Edith is a passenger manifest from July 1928 when she is on the Berengaria sailing from Southampton to Cherbourg. The passenger below her on the manifest is a Claude Dansey. His address is given as (I think) 28 Gt James St, his profession is Agent (for what or whom, I don't know) and his age is 52.
I would like to find out what happened to Edith - did she end up marrying her co-respondent? And who was her Claude Dansey?
Many thanks,
