He did marry Emma Cooper in 1913, then he seemed to do a runner, was in the army in WW1 then married in 1919.  Am wondering if it was a bigamous marriage or was he divorced.

Hi,

In that time frame, divorces were very difficult to get and very expensive, so most didn't.

William is not listed in the Canadian Parliamentary Divorces 1826-1946
http://www.cangenealogy.com/armstrong/divlist_y.htm

Within his attestation papers that Sandra provided, there is one mention of Emma Yeo,
719 2nd Street, East, Calgary, Alberta.
In the 1921 census she says she is a widow.
Yeo, Emma, age 43, b. England, (W)widow, chambermaid hotel
Yeo, Margaret age 7, b. Alberta, school
https://central.bac-lac.gc.ca/.item/?app=Census1921&op=img&id=e002855408

*Added: Emma is mentioned on Page 61
