Edith Dunbar (born Wentworth), 1845 - 1891

[Farelf]

Currently researching Edith Wentworth Dunbar, out of curiosity.

I am intrigued that at the time of death she was living near Munich, and died in Paris, and probably buried in the United Kingdom

Unable to access ancestry, but would be interested in a copy of;
Divorce Court File: 7057. Appellant: Edith Wentworth Dunbar. Respondent: Charles Gordon...

Any help appreciated.

Is this her?

You can access Ancestry at most local libraries - check that yours has access

[Farelf]

Yes

Can not get to the library during opening times

The divorce case was covered in many newspapers at the time. Edith was seeking 'a judicial separation on the grounds of alleged adultery, the Venerable Archdeacon Charles Gordon ...'

Edith is in more than 200 trees on Ancestry, one of them might have some useful facts.  Have you considered a trial membership of Ancestry?   One tree links to her death in France, from a Paris, France, births, marriages and deaths site.  Do not know if Ancestry has exclusive access to it, or how good your French is.

There is also a probate entry for her

How does she connect to your family history?

[Farelf]

Sorry for the delay, Edith isn't connected to my family, she has a connection to someone buried in Shorncliliffe. Would take ages to find out who and what the connection was now.
