Hi Kaz

thank you very much for the info, this is very interesting, looks like my great grandfather married twice, will try and do a bit more delving. i will try and find a divorce or death entry for Emma and take it from there. i'm new to this and still trying to find my feet, was going down the lines of Evelyn as she registered her mothers (Jean Cruickshank) death.

Still on the look out for Evelyn, i know she married in London to a chap called William Kurz, it is possible she went to live in Canada, think married in 1935. i assuming she was born in Canada because i can't find anything about her here. hopefully it will gradually fall into place.

once again a big thank you
