Looked for a death on CWGC for John Race - none recorded

Either he died before Violet re-married, or she simply said he had. Unlikely to have been divorced as it was prohibitively expensive in those days

Where have you looked?

When was JOHN born?

Who was his wife? What happened to her after 1911?

I am trying ti found out what happened to my Grandfather.
My father Johnathan Hymers Race was born at Evenwood near Bishop Auckland in 1907. By the 1911 census he is no longer with his wife.
