Are any of the 3 children still alive?  Can't you ask them if there was a divorce?

They likely are, but I haven't found any information on where they live, etc.
And it's not my family tree, doing work for someone else, so on a time schedule and just wouldn't feel appropriate to contact them.

England / Divorce record?
« on: Sunday 10 August 25 16:39 BST (UK)  »
Hi - I'm trying to find more information on Elizabeth Jean Rose (b1925, Edmonton) who married John Robert Athelstan Clark in Hertfordshire, July 1956. I believe they had 2 sons and a daughter - the sons at least look to have been born in Glasgow.
Robert died in 1992 - I accessed his will, which refers to his wife as Rosemary.
I believe he married Rosemary Lingley in 1980.
I also have the will of Elizabeth's father, in which he bequeaths items to his daughter 'Jean Clark'. This is dated 1983.
So she appears to have still been alive at the time of Robert's second marriage.
Can anyone give advice on how I might find a record of divorce?

England / Birth Certificate Time
« on: Friday 27 June 25 19:55 BST (UK)  »
I'm looking at the birth certificate for twins born in 1901.
The first twin is recorded as being born at '9.0pm' and the second twin underneath at '9.5pm'.

I'm assuming that '9.0pm' means 9 o'clock.
Wondering though whether 9.5 means five minutes past nine, just eliminating the 0 OR half past nine i.e 0.5 signifying half...

Northamptonshire / Newnham, Northamptonshire Burial
« on: Tuesday 28 January 25 13:53 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out where someone might be buried in the town of Newnham, Northamptonshire. I know there is a churchyard at St Michael and All Angels, Google Maps suggests there is also a newer cemetery slightly out of town.
The person I'm researching was buried in 1918 - does anybody know the dates covered by the churchyard vs the new cemetery?

Also, as a long shot, does anyone have a copy of the Northamptonshire Family History Society-produced memorial inscription booklet for St Michael's?

Thank you!

This is her signature on the register. I do believe it to be Stobie. FindMyPast had it transcribed as 'Hobin'.
