You must know more about her than that. With so little information to go on, and such common and (in his case) easily misspelled names, it'd be like looking for a needle in a haystack wearing a blindfold and boxing gloves.

Have you got a copy of their marriage certificate? If not, your first step is to get a copy. Then get back to us and tell us what it says.

If they married in Scotland, you can get it from www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
If they married in England or Wales, start with https://www.freebmd.org.uk/search and follow the instructions there once you find it
If they married in Ireland, try https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/ or for Northern Ireland go to https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/introduction-groni-and-its-records
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

As in your other posts - you need to give a lot more information.  You don’t tell us what you are looking for or what their connection is to you.  You have a question mark against her name without any explanation as to why

If he was only born 1917 - any marriage would be in the late 1930’s or early 40’s so any children could still be living.  Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy
