Florence King married James Atholl McGregor Skinner (I presume after the death of her husband Harold King in 1964) However, I do not know where and when. She lived in Lewisham, London. Can anyone help?

There isn't even a record of the woman's first 'marriage' on freebmd

Is this the 'husband's' death

Thanks everyone. She was born in Deptford in 1899. Had a child with the said James Skinner (not married to each other) approx 1920/24 inEdinburgh. She then married Harold King who died in Lewisham 1964 but it's possible they separated or divorced and all I have is that she married the said James skinner sometime so I can't be sure if she came back to Scotland or stayed in England.

As we have not found ANY records in England/Wales.............any marriages must have been in Scotland
