Yes I remember Blanch Trice and yes she was 102 years of age! Her husband William George Trice did go off with another woman, she lived "across the road" whether this is correct im not sure.

Choccy
I think thats the one that Julie ruled out in her last posting

His mothers maiden name was Whittick but I cant find a William George Whittick of right age and area dying after 1946
Similarly he has a stepfather George Newland in 1901 and might have used that name but cant find one that fits closely enough to spend money on it

I have looked at his WW1 record in the hope that any pension he was paid might have recorded a later address -but no luck ( he joined up in 1908 claiming to be 18 when he was only 16 so here is an early evasion. Do you know his mothers maiden name which he might have adopted?
I presume you know about Joans 2 sisters Vera and Noreen and have sought their input?

Blanch Violet Trice did not die until 1993 aged 102! So if he married there must either have been a divorce in which case she would surely know of it or as you say he could have taken up with another woman but there is little hope of finding them if he did so
The other possibility is he left the country and died overseas
