Question

G2G: Who did she marry? My father-in-law William Webb was her first husband

Answer 1

Married William Arthur Webb in 1922. She is on the Timaru  Cemetery list as being buried under the surname Webb.

Answer 2

It appears that Kathleen may not have married again after marrying William Arthur Webb during 1922. There is a burial plot for Kathleen Gladys Webb at the Timaru Cemetery ( https://www.timaru.govt.nz/services/community-and-culture/cemeteries/cemetery-search?BurialId=107 ). Her death entry gives a birth of 3rd May but it appears she was born on the 2nd May.

There is also a Probate Record listed for 1979 ( https://archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewFullItem.do?code=19323329 ) showing her as a Housewife, which seems to suggest that she was still married or recently widowed.

There is a death for a William Arthur Webb during 1978 that gives a birth year of 1899. While circumstantial, it does suggest that Kathleen was always married to William.
