A 19th century ancestor outlived his first three wives. His fourth wife survived him and married another man after his death. I thought the ancestor was only married four times, and figured I’d found all his wives.

Turned out that three year gap was just enough time for him to squeeze in another one who also died.

There may be room for just one more–check that chronology.
