Just a thought. How about if the Eccles/Phipps marrriage was her second one? She would have been about 30 when she married Thomas Phipps, plenty of time to have been married before. I reckon the only way to get this sorted out is to get that marriage certificate for 1932, which should tell you whether or not she had been married before - although this isn't always 100%.
