Hi Janeyanne,

Ellen was my great-great-grandfather's first wife.  She died in Wandsworth in 1876 (1D 399).  William then married Mary Burke, a servant (b.1854, India) around 1878, but there is no record of the marriage in England and Wales.  I have assumed that they married in Ireland (where Mary's family originated). 

Hope this helps!
