I have not forgotten my offer to look up at the local library.   Good weather and a new kitchen has curtailed my research at the moment.  I will be in touch

10 Weelsby Street, Grimsby, passed peacefully away the beloved husband of Alice, and dear father of Harry, Wilfred, Edna, Nellie, Ruby, Iris and Sheila.   Interment Scarthoe-road Cemetery, Wednesday, preceded by service at St. John's Church 1.20p.m.

A GRIMSBY WOMAN BIGAMIST

THREE MONTHS' SENTENCE AT ASSIZES

At Lincolnshire Assizes at Lincoln yesterday, Alice Salina Johnson (48), housekeeper, pleaded guilty to committing bigamy at Grimsby in September, 1942, and was sent to prison for three months.
She told Mr. Justice Wrottesley that she did it "to mother" the man's two children.

At a visit to the local library today I found the following obituary notice in the Grimsby Evening Telegraph for Tuesday 20 October 1964.

GRIFFITHS:- On October 17, 1964, at the Grimsby General Hospital, Alice, aged 69 years, of 10 Weelsby Street, Grimsby, passed peacefully away, the dearly loved mother of Theodora, Joe and Catherine.   Service and committal Grimsby Crematorium Thursday 2pm.

That gives three names different to obituary for her husband.   They are probably from her first marriage, but they probably mean somthing to you.
Regards
