I don't understand the problem. John Tregoz married about 1288 Mabel
Fitzwarin. He has two daugters say 1289-1291. That leaves 9-10 years
for his first wife to die and he to remarry a woman named Joan and them
himself die in 1300. So, why jump to divorce? And why would WIll
Johnson need to add his two cents that the two men were different?

Unless you have a document that says Mabel was alive past her husband,
I'm not sure I see a research problem.
