There might be some with Maria, but as she doesn't appear on any census with him & them, you'll never know.

........

I reckon it was a bigamous marriage. After all, he was able to move around the country with his job. Only family would know any different!

Ian - depending on which line you are interested in, we could send you images of both marriages.

Found the marriage

GRIFFITHS Samuel George Pancras 1b 87
TAYLOR Ann Frestone Pancras 1b 87

It might be worth buying it to see if he was a bachelor or widower, and if he names his father as Samuel Griffiths as per the 1872 marriage.

As divorce was so expensive, quite a few bigamous marriages took place.
