Lavinia Tabb c1838 -?

[beatrice834]

Hi, I am looking for any information about the above, daughter of Robert Tabb.  She married Joseph Ridley in St Mary's, Dublin in 1859.  Joseph was a gymnast/clown, born 1835/6, one of the "Brothers Ridley". He died in Edinburgh in February 1868 of meningitis while on tour.  Lavinia was the informant, present at the death.   Newspaper reports say that Joseph left a wife and daughter.   I cannot find Lavinia after 1868. 

Grateful for any help with Lavinia.

Thanks for reading this!

Have you looked to see if she remarried?  She would have been a young woman when he died.

Have you found their daughter after 1868?

Thanks - yes I looked for a second marriage and couldn't find one in England and Wales - if Ireland, more difficult.   I have records for someone who I hope is their daughter - Gertrude Ridley - who gives her birth place as Finsbury with a date varying from 1864 to 1868.  I cannot find a birth record for Gertrude or any census entries until after her marriage in 1889 when there is plenty of information.
 It is the earlier information I need.  She must be in the 1871 census but under what name?  The problem with theatricals is that they had stage names - hers was Gertrude Monti - as did her husband.
