Thanks for getting back to me.
My grandmother, Olive May Lewis was born in Gloucester in 1895 but the family appeared to have moved to Tewksbury shortly after. Harold Nind lived in the Tewksbury area.
John MR Lewis had been a printer for many years in Gloucester but strangely when they moved to Tewkesbury, he became the landlord of the Oddfellows Arms. My grandmother’s younger brother, Archibald was born in 1927 and they all moved to Leicester shortly after.
In the 1901 census - Annie is living back in Tewkesbury with Harold Nind with a new baby, Reginald, my grandmother and some of her siblings. John MR Lewis is living in lodgings in Leicester and is working back as a printer.
I discovered a letter from Annie to the war office in Harold Nind’s WW1 service records, she said her marriage to John MR was proved void by her solicitor - not sure what this meant. Annie didn’t actually marry Harold until 1915 and her marital status is listed at spinster, although I have a marriage certificate for Annie and John MR in 1886.
Even more odd, my grandmother listed John MR as being deceased when she married my grandad in 1918 - even though he wasn’t dead and she’d been staying with him in Leicester. My grandmother met my grandfather in Leicester.
So it seems there were definitely secrets in the family.
