Thank you,, that it a good article. Interestingly he entered himself in subsequent census records as widowed. |

If they divorced her husband must have been quite wealthy because it was beyond the means of most people in those days. If you google divorce 1871 there is an interesting googlebook that comes up called "The changing social structure of England and Wales 1871- 1961" |

Thank you everyone, will look further into some of these thoughts. Yes the 1871 census with William and Caroline Alice does look like Verry so I will order Caroline Alice's birth certificate. |

My great great grandmother Hannah Silvey born 1835 Combe, Hampshire, England married William Verry in 1864 in Islington, London. I have found that they divorced in 1871 and I am unable to find Hannah Silvey or Verry in 1871, 1881, 1891 census records or find a death record for her. Unsure if she would still have the name Verry or Silvey again? I have also tried to find marriage records after 1871 under Silvey and Verry but nothing shows up. |
