divorce or separation INFORMATION

[J.D.WARD]

CAN ANYONE TELL IF I CAN GET INFORMATION ON DIVORCE OR SEPARATION IN THE NOTTINGHAM AREA IN THE 1940s.
I LIVE IN CANADA AND INFORMATION IS VERY LIMITED FOR ME.
MANY THANKS

Hello JD,

According to the Public Record Office, copies of decrees nisi and absolute can be obtained - for a fee, but it looks as though the actual case files for the time you are interested in may have been destroyed.

Here's a link to their information leaflet -  http://www.rootschat.com/links/066z/   

Another alternative may be local newspapers, which sometimes reported divorce actions.

Hi

I have recently sent for decree abolute papers dated 1945 for Nottinghamshire
If you don't know the date they do a 10 year search for you. It cost me £40
