Is it possible he died overseas? Have you searched on the overseas indexes on 1837 online? Also, try searching the National Probate Calendar (not available online, you have to search on microfiche at record offices or probate offices) to see if he left a will or if his estate went to administration.

Various possibilities: He didn't die and she lied at the second marriage........ He did die and the entry never reached the GRO indexes..... He did die, but his body was not found (unlikely, I know, but still possible)....... She married the lodger, didn't she?? I wonder if hubby discovered something ''going on'' behind his back and upped and left.....he might even have gone abroad or something..... Merry
