Merlin & Ros,
You are working hard, that marriage in SA now looks a good bet. My information is that Michael Joseph O'loughlin/Mcloughlin, deserted his wife Harriet, and she was courted by William Vickery, who was a quiet, morose sort of man. They married after it was established that her first husband Michael had died/or a divorce had occurred, my informant is not sure which it was. Any chance of finding out?
Certainly the info stated that she wasn't long with William Vickery, and the evidence proves that!
