More thankyous Sandra, the 1931 marriage was certainly bigamous.

Confirmation of the divorce date  :) :)  Now you know why he married again in 1945.

Yes but he waited another 6 years, rather odd.

Perhaps he didn't realize until later that he wasn't actually married to Hilda?  Maybe he discussed estate planning with an attorney 6 years later and the attorney told him they better marry again to make sure Hilda would inherit?  Anything's possible.
