If her name is Peggy on marriage cert it's probably Peggy really.
Have you got the cert? This will give her age.

Have you looked for a Delo/Brett marriage on Freebmd? The name is so unusual that if you find one it's highly likely to be yours.
You need to go hunting yourself, much more enjoyable!
If you have no luck, let us know.
