Hi, I believe she was widowed in about early 1942, or late as her husband was captured by the Japanese and taken on one of the prisoner of war ships which was subsequently bombed whilst travelling to Japan, they had had only 6 weeks of marriage and they would have been married in the autumn of 1941, many thanks.

Have you tried looking to see if anyone on here shares these relatives? use "search trees" above.
Do you know when she was widowed?
