Hi Shaum J  and Jerome, Thank you  both, yes i had the 1917 NY directory.
I checked out the 1901 census which looked like it may have been my
Lisa but according to the marriage notice in the Baltimore Sun the marriage
was in 1903, could she have been calling herself Mrs D before the marr??
Maybe she was his Mistress, maybe he was already marr to someone else.
I have not been able to find the 1903 marr to confirm it. As you say did the
 marr take place at all. I am trying to find a death for Mr D as when she marr
husband 2 she is stating she was a widow and this was Jan 1904!
In the 1905 census Manhatton NY she is with her husband Charles and a
daughter aged 1Month and a daughter Frances 8yrs(whom i think is her
step daughter) but no mention of a daughter Kathleen. I will try and post
the notice from the Boston Sun which i purchased but its in PDF form so not
sure if i can post it or not. If not i will transcribe it. many thanks ,roecoyle.

Hi still tying to post the article.

Sorry its hard to read but i will transcribe it.

Grooms name is Dilddgim.
Special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun, New York, July 26th-
To their New York freinds the announcement in a morning
paper of the marriage in St Andrews Church, London on July 2
of Mr Cecil(i think) Glynee Dilddgim a prosperous young
merchant of Wales, to Miss Lisa McKay a pretty Scotch manicure,
will come as a great surprise. Miss McKay, before her marriage
had been employed in one of the fashionable manicure establishments
of London, where Mr Dilddgim was a regular patron.

Hi Roe,

I'm still following your most interesting posts!

Apparently, there are no marriage records for July 1903 posted on the BMD.

Found St, Andrews Church in Hoborn (if that's the church you need) and website states that for records after 1831, contact London Metropolitan Archives, Northampton Road, EC1 0HB.

I'm still not comprehending the part of the marriage announcement that states "for their friends in New York" (were they previously in New York??) and why post the announcement in the Baltimore Sun then?
Your search gets more interesting with every post!!

Hi Gracie23, yes its a strange one is`nt it?. I thought that too
about the Boston Sun, why?. I don`t think Lisa would have
been travelling back and forth to New York and have friends
there as she came from a very poor family. Its very strange
to have just been married for 5 months(July 1903) and widowed
and remarried in New York in Jan 1904, how fast is that!
Something funny going on here and its driving me nuts!
It just struck me maybe she was married in 1903 in London USA.
I just presumed it was London England.
 Thanks for your interest. Roe.

Perhaps it was London, Ontario? There was also a Wales, Ontario until 1958
