No need to apologise to me,  but that is an excellent conundrum for a new thread.   :D

If he died e.g. at sea, body not found, there may be no record?

Thank you for all your replies everyone. This lady was tricky to fathom out and without all your input I would never have resolved it and maybe I haven't even now but the pieces certainly fit together so I can only assume I have everything correct now.

My only doubt centres on the fact that she is ambiguous about her age on each census.
   
As for her first husbands death record I still cannot trace it but his name has many variations on the spelling which is complicating things. Maybe he did die at sea but the parish is not by the coast, although it is not an impossible thought.
Best wishes HL
