No no, Liz, you actually did exactly the right thing, using the existing thread, although I might have just indicated in the first post that there were new questions on page 2 and put them there, but it all came out fine, lol.

Bea,

Thanks for your interest. Lucy Papworth was born abt. 1821 in Shadwell, Middlesex (Docklands). I haven't done much research about her yet, but always interested to hear from others!

Coincidentally, I have just received the certificate for William Robert Heath Clayton's second marriage to Caroline Piggott in June 1873. And yes, it says he is a widower - but we shall see...

Have also sent for Lucy Ann Clayton (nee Erixon's) death cert and very frustrated that it didn't arrive in the same post!

Turns out William's second marriage was fairly short-lived: Caroline, a widow, remarried in 1879. Not sure whether I will ever find William RH Clayton's death though - there are so many possibles ...

But, very soon, I hope to have the answer to my original question on this post - i.e. did William remarry before Lucy died?

Liz
