What happened to Herbert and Louisa Augusta Holloway nee Harvey?
« on: Thursday 26 June 25 14:44 BST (UK) »
Louisa Augusta Harvey was born in 1859 in Marylebone d/o Charles Harvey (licensed victualler) and his wife Elizabeth nee Norris.
On 19 Aug 1880 she married Herbert Holloway (b 1852, Burley Hants) son of John Toomer Holloway (surveyor) at St Mary, Lambeth. I can't find any children for the couple and I can't find them in 1881. In 1891 Louisa (recorded as married) is a visitor in the household of William Kedge, his wife Caroline and family. Although listed as visitor, Caroline Kedge is her sister, having married William Kedge in 1884. I can't find Herbert in 1891. And I can't find what happened to either of them later. Can anyone locate them please?

Thank you very much - that looks like them both, but did they divorce or both remarry bigamously. If Herbert deserted her and went to America and she heard no more from him. Could she legally remarry after 7 years?

It looks like she married Benjamin Griffin. There's an entry in the Probate Index for Louisa Augusta Griffin, died 1946 , probate to Sydney William Kedge

The index when Louisa remarried shows both her maiden surname and Holloway so it looks as though she was being honest  :)

I would think Herbert deserted her there is a few immigration records for a Herbert Holloway some of the images are hard to read .I think he left for New York about 1883
