According to familysearch she married a Charles Donahue on 4/12/1942 in Repton, Derbyshire.  Is this the same person?

I am starting to get a bit confused here.  Did she then divorce Donahue and marry "Dawson"?  If so where was that?  Where die she die - Rhodesia or South Africa?

That's what I'm trying to determine aswell... I'm presuming she made a new life in either Rhodesia or South Africa
