Hi all.
Can anyone please help!
I have Ann Lewis (bn 1842, East Dean) married Henry Drew on 14 Sept 1861 then later married Henry Russell on 4 May 1879.
I have found a death record for Henry Drew in 1883. As this is 4 years after Anns' marriage to Henry Russell does anyone know if there was a divorce here?
Also Anns' sister Elizabeth married William Russell on 11 June 1876 at Flaxley. I beleive he was the brother of Henry. Their parents were Joseph and Ann. They also had a sister Caroline.
Any help here much appreciated. Jo.
Not the same Henry DREW

It appears that the burial you have found of Henry DREW is not the same Henry that married Ann LEWIS. The fathers' first name of the buried Henry when looking at his baptism details is different to the Henry that married Ann.
Burial: Henry Hail DREW at Lonhope 1883, age at death 46.
Baptism: Henry Hale DREW Longhope 1837. Parents Thomas and Mary.
Marriage of Henry DREW to Ann LEWIS at Littledean 1861. Henry's fathers name is George.

Thankyou for that.
I looked at what info I had and you were right. Henry Drews' father was indeed George. I had spent about 2 hrs prior to posting my message looking at records etc and was a bit tired.
Thanks again. Jo
