Family Arthur CLARE, b. 12 Jan 1873, Reading, Berkshire, England , d. Mar Q 1959, Gillingham, Kent, England (Age 85 years) Marriage Mar Q 1907 Medway Reg Dist, Kent, England - GRO ref: Woolley, Mabel Gladys to CLARE, Arthur q1 1907 Medway RD 2a 1024
This was a register office or non-conformist marriage. (from Guild Marriage Index)
Married 17 Apr 1909 St. Mary Magdalene’s Church, Gillingham, Kent, England - Only one birth of a Mabel G Woolley in Kent before 1895 yet these 2 marriage references - clearly for some reason two marriages of the same couple, the only difference being the spelling of Arthur's surname -
GRO ref: Woolley, Mabel Gladys to CLARE, Arthur q1 1907 Medway RD 2a 1024
and
Woolley, Mabel Gladys to CLAIR, Arthur q2 1909 Medway RD 2a 1276
Details from PR entry for 2nd ref (image on CityArk, viewed 20 Jan 2017)
The 1911 census shows that Arthur and Mabel had had no children by then, and the GRO index (original) has no Clare or Clair birth registrations in Kent with a mother's maiden name of Woolley, 1911-1930, nor any others in other counties likely to be of this couple.
