I presume he was married twice as in 1911 he was a widower. Can't find him on the migration list.

Hi,
Wallace Ira Morgan born Upton Bishop 1874 and his wife Mary Cheshire born Dymock 1876.They married Upton Bishop 1917. I believe they went to America shortly after butI am having no joy confirming this. Wallace had a daughter Edith Irene Morgan born 1909. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Lorna
