Both Eleanor and her older sister Rosa married Sheppey men as their first husbands and subsequently lived there. Rosa was widowed in Q1 1906 and then Eleanor herself in Q4. The following year they married two brothers. It was not a double wedding (they married in different quarters), Eleanor, the second widowed, marrying first in Q3; it looks like the marriage was quite urgent as a child was born the following quarter!
