Find Ancestors

Can anyone help me solve a mystery? I have Eliza Jane Parrott m Albert Edward Harman in 1889 but in 1896 she is wife of Alfred Bushell and in 1896 they have a daughter Doris. On Doris's birth certificate Eliza gives her maiden name as Parrott. I can't find a marriage of Eliza to Alfred and think that possibly she left Albert for Alfred and just adopted his name. Can anyone find a record to prove otherwise? Can I search for divorces on line anywhere?

Thanks

For reference...

Marriages Dec 1889

HARMAN Albert Edward Dover 2a 1833
PARROTT Eliza Jane Dover 2a 1833

Dover is in Kent

Sorry - I forgot to put that vital bit in! Thanks for adding it

Unless they were very well off, divorce would have been very rare at this time and it is far more likely that they would have just lived as man and wife.
