Date of Colquhoun's marriage?

The article currently says that Colquhoun married del Renzio in 1940; this isn't cited so it's hard to tell the source. Matthew Gale's biography on the Tate's website ([1]) says they married in 1942; the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography and Desmond Morris' recent book The British Surrealists both say 1943 – Morris says they only met in 1942! Which is correct, and what is the source for the 1940 date? Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 11:48, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ithell Colquhoun and Toni del Renzio were married in 1943. The England & Wales civil registry marriage index states 1943, listed in July, August, September index. Sourced from Ancestry.com 80.1.28.234 (talk) 22:01, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ithellcolquhoun.co.uk also says July 1943, and that they had not yet met in January 1942. I've changed the article to reflect this; looks like the 1940 date is just plain wrong. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 13:24, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
