Hi Ivor
This may help a little.
THis is what the National Archives have to say about the survival of Divorce records.
Case files: survival rates and search tips
The Principal Registry contains only the decrees granting a divorce, but many people sued unsuccessfully for a divorce. For each suit, whether successful or not, case files were created, containing the original petition and response, relevant marriage and birth certificates, court process, copies of decrees (from about 1870 onwards) and sometimes evidence.
Very few survive after 1937.
Case files are now destroyed 20 years after the divorce. If you are within the 20 year period, you can apply to the relevant court for permission to see the file.
Surviving case case files can be seen at The National Archives, in J 77 (which is searchable online by name).
* 1858-1927: almost all survive * 1928-1937: 80% survive (files from the district registries have been destroyed) * search J 77 in the Catalogue, for these using forename AND surname e.g. Kathleen AND Smith as just searching for Kathleen Smith will not pick up Kathleen Winifred Smith * maiden names are not given except in petitions for nullity * although some co-respondents have been named in the Catalogue, we know that many others were not given in the indexes (from which the catalgoue entries were created) but are still mentioned in the case files themselves . * 1938-date: most have been destroyed.
A very small annual sample has been kept, subject to 30-year closure * (search J 77 in the Catalogue, for these using surname only for example, Cassidy. * A further 2% random sample is in J 132 for cases where the Official Solicitor acted for one of the parties: these are subject to a 75 year or longer closure.
* Divorces were often reported in the local or national press, particularly in the earlier years. If a divorce case appears in The Times, you should find the full report using The Times Digital Archive

Hi Ivor
Very unlikely to have divorced formally, more likely to have just struck up another relationship.
Do you know the name of the baby she took with her?
Are you okay with the fortunes of the three chldren she left behind?

How does one gain access to the Divorce records?
Violet Mary Pearl Armstrong married to Frederick Tripp in 1917,left the house in Brampton Suffolk, about 1926-1930 never to heard of since.
I cannot find any records of her since that time,
she was supposed to have taken a young baby daughter with her,name unknown.
I cannot find a record of such a birth.
She left 3 other children behind
I am thinking that if another man was involved,did she marry him,if so did she gain a divorce.?
Any help appreciated
Ivor Armstrong
