Find Ancestors

Would someone be able to check a marriage for me please?

I have Philip J C C Wicks married in 1936 to Sadie Nixon Bower in Northumberland, I know he was married twice but I have no details from the second marriage, however, when I was trying to find out I came across a Philip J C C Wicks overseas marriage in Tunisia. Is it the same person and whom did he marry?
Both marriages apparently produced a son.
Phil was born in 1916 to Percy Wicks and Matilda Craddock. ( the second 'C' in his name is Craddock )

His death cert may shed some light

Thanks - I presume it is the same Philip Wicks with those initials

There are two births in England and Wales during the 1950s of a Wicks child with mother maiden name Prior (though we don't know if Rachel was also married before), or if they are children of the Tunisia marriage.

I've pmed both, as only one seems to show up on FreeBMD with mmn Prior, and we're probably talking about living people.

EDIT : was typing when alviegal posted.

Looks like Philip and Sadie divorced:

Thanks again. Having looked at a late relatives notes on family history it does say that she believed P. Wicks and his second wife died within a short space of time of each other leaving an orphaned son but she didn't know anything other than that so - thankyou it fills in some gaps for me.
