2nd marriage Dora Gwendoline Miles/Howells
« on: Monday 02 May 16 19:31 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out if Dora Gwendoline Miles married a 2nd time and if so who was her husband. Her first husband was John Francis Howells. Her first marriage was in Cardiff in 1918 and only lasted a couple of months as John F. HOwells died. She was born in 1894.

Hi,
There is a Dora Howells, no middle,name marrying in 1926 to a Charles Shaw but not in Wales, in Hampshire, another possibility is a Dora G Howell marrying an Eaton H Adye in Newton Abott 1939, Imcross checked her death record and she has a birth year of 1893 so close.

I too have just found the Adye marriage.  Death register gives her middle name as Gwendoline......

Eaton Henry Adye dies in 1953, probate is given to Dora Gwendoline Adye, widow.

On the 1939 register, Eaton H Adye is at a house in Torquay.  I think one of the occupants is his brother's widow, then there is her house servant, then Eaton is noted and then the final occupant is.......... Dora G Howell (the Howell is crossed out with Adye written over).  Birth date is given as 4th June 1893.  Do you have Dora G Miles' birth cert to prove the link?
