The way this man treated his wives, I wouldn't be surprised if he changed his name...............or ended up in prison

Yes, he was a bigamist...........he lied when he married Emma, and his wife Alice was still 'MARRIED' in 1891. She was NOT deceased

You said you couldn't find info about the sons Robert and William................I posted possible info. Did you see it?

I would like to thank all those who have been contributing to my request for information I am not very good with PC or researching but with your help I have more threads to follow ie, Was Robert R W P Bainbridge a Bigamist or were he and Alice divorced He obviously was not legaly Married to both women at same time He lied on marriage certificate when he married Emma Jane about his Marital status and his Fathers occupation as Vetinery Surgeon ?? Just to complicate things even further He appears to have abandoned Emma and children after 1910 the last confirmed record I can find of him He was not recorded at family home 1911 Census Emma was Head with 2 sons & 2 female Boarders
I want to get to bottom of this but it is getting more and more difficult and I am not getting any younger Thanks again to you all

You would do well to look at this poster's other threads about his family

The 1891 census indicated by mgnv 2 posts above

The death in Thirsk was suggested by someone on one of the poster's other threads, and he obviously accepted it without checking anything

RB declared he was a bachelor when he married in 1891............so, a bigamist

I don't have a sub, but piece rg12/836 covers Broadwater, 2km N of Worthing.

Marriages Jun 1891 (>99%)

Bacon Emma Jane E. Preston 2b 643
Bainbridge Robert Ruter P E. Preston. 2b 643

That has to be her on the 1891 census as daughter of Dorothy Nicholson and mother of Robert & William Bainbridge but you say on your tree on Ancestry that he married Emma Jane Bacon April 1891. The census was 5 April 1891.

Are you certain of Alice's death in Thirsk in 1889- isn't that her on the 1891?

Should be worth investigating.............

I can't see the 1911 referred to

Perhaps you'd post it.........................

I suppose it could be on one of the other threads, but I'm not prepared to plough through them

Hello GRUNKLE- can you post the 1911 census you refer to, I don't see it.
