Finding Richard Arthur Elliott and his famiy history

[chempat]

Going to Canada in 1953, from Bridgwater, Esther age 37, Richard age 30, 3 children.

  Morthens was her maiden name from her children's births (one has Mortens), and this marriage to Richard:

Marriages March quarter  1949 
Richard A Elliott  Colchester   
Esther Koren  Colchester   
Esther Morthens  Colchester   

When his wife and children returned in 1957 they were going to St Hilda's Oxford.

Added:
Esther Elliott appeared not to marry again, and died in Oxfordshire in 2003.
Is her probate under Edna Esther?

Thank you all for the information that keeps coming in. We have certainly learnt some facts which we didn't have and had many others confirmed.

We found previously that Richard was an Etonian, but we don't know exactly when he was there.

We have also previously found that he, Esther and three children went to Canada, with Esther and the children returning alone to the Uk. We have not yet found when Richard returned, or when he and Esther divorced and what he was up to until 1975. We also have not been able to trace Esther and the children after they returned to Oxford.

We are looking into Esther's different surnames. Chempat what leads you to believe that Esther did not remarry?

Thanks again.
