Any help looking up records in Suffolk for this would be really appreciated.
Reginald Frank Roll was born in Herringfleet on the 18th July 1893 to Frank Roll and Alice Matilda Kittle. He spent a lot of his adult years as a tanner in India, but travelled back and forth to Suffolk often and finally settled in Suffolk where he died on the 8th November 1980.He was married twice and I don't think had any children. My issue is with tracing his two wives.
1. He married Laurence Henrietta Maria Espie on the 7th November 1921 at St Mary, Somerleyton. I have the marriage certificate and Laurence was born around 1897 and he father is listed as Jean Espie a gentleman. Soon after the marriage the couple went to India and I presume Laurence died over there, because the next time Reginald shows up on an immigration record he is listed as a widow. However, I can find now trace before the marriage of who Laurence Henrietta Maria Espie and her father Jean were. Do these people even sound English?
2. He later travels with his new wife Mary Alice who was born on the 25th August 1899 and she is a doctor. I am again presuming that they married overseas because I can't find any marriage records for this marriage. She dies on the 28th September 2000 and is buried with Reginald. I will probably need to order her death certificate, but any information about her would also be appreciated.
Thanks
