Thanks for looking. I'm amazed how you find these people.
A few doors up from Gunnells Cottages in Milton, Chesterton is the Waggon and Horses public house .... transcribed as "Haggon Houses" so locating Emily was a real find.
And Redman does look like Redman on the original.
So, it does look as though Elizabeth Diver did marry Frank Redman (3 months after Isaac died) and I guess Emily never married and died in 1989 age 80 years. GRO has her birth as SQ 1909.

What is the War register and how do you access it?

It's usually referred to as the 1939 Register. Names, addresses, dates of birth and occupations for people in England and Wales as of September 1939, with some subsequent updating by the NHS up to circa 1990. Searchable on FindMyPast, Ancestry and The Genealogist web services.

Thanks for that. I use the 1939 register and didn't realise it was also known as the war register.

I'd never heard it called the war register before either.
