It would seem she married abroad and her marriage wasn't registered at the British Embassy .

How do you know about the possible son ? Was he Louis La Gamba ?

Not seeing anything on him online

Just in case you didn't have it already, Alice Rose was born 15 Dec 1880.

Her parents married 18 Dec 1878 at St Paul's Church, Malta.

Info from Henry Gadd's service records on FindMyPast.

Vivien, does the 1935 marriage state if she was widowed or divorced?

Vivien Report 9 May 2014 15:45

Thanks for the information. Don't think the Floriana Cemeteries entries are relevant to my immediate family as the dates are too early. Nevertheless it was interesting to see.
Anyone able to throw light on the elusive Mr. La Gamba?

Have discovered the death for Alice Rose - and also a second marriage to an Alfred Leonard Oliver in 1935 Q1. West Ham and sent for the marriage certificate which confirmed I had the right person. However I still can't find her first marriage but from the certificate I have she was married to a Mr. La Gamba - can't find a marriage or death in England/Wales registers. Tried France but to no avail also the passenger lists but with no result. Any ideas where to look next?

I do not know as that is as far as I have been able to get. Know both her parents were dead by 1901 census.

Trying to trace my grandfather's elder sister. Believe she may have gone to France in WW1 and maybe had a son Louis? Would really like to know more about her.
