Thanks Belle <3

Probably got that wrong, but the downloads have BL on them, I assumed they are from the British Library. But they are Newspaper Articles.

I found a number of issues of a Kent Newspaper.
My Maternal Gran's court appearance for a Seperation Order from her first husband on grounds of cruelty. (I did know about this, but did not expect to find it in a newspaper)
And numerous others of her trying to get back paid Support money for the children of the marriage over many years.

Lots of detail in them all! "Learning All The Time!" ;-):-D :-D :-D

The first one was in 1926 and follow up ones in 1930 and 1934 I think.
She had married my Granddad in 1930, and he had remarried with 4 kids and only 1 leg :-D

Lots of items about him too! Bit of a bad one :-0

I will PM the details Belle, cos you have FMP
