Note on Husband: Philip Stacey

Previously married Eleanor, did they separate as he did not remarry until 1912

Note on Wife: Louise Potter

Louise is a bit of an enigma, cannot find a marriage to a Purkiss, but the 1901 census says she was unmarried, had they separated? She then lived with Philip Stacey having several children but they did marry until much later. More information needed
