I've known for some time that there was one Great-Great-Aunt who might have been abandoned by her first husband and then become a bigamist. Yesterday I discovered that both her older brother and mother also did somethine similar :( . I'm wondering if anyone might be able to go over what I've discovered to see If I might have gone wrong somewhere or prove/disporve my bigamy theories? (Also - sorry for the wall of text - I tried to write it out chronologically)
John Seddon married Ann Palmer (born July 8, 1850 via death cert) on March 22, 1872. They had 5 children that I know of - John Jr, Sussanah (died in infancy), Rose, Daniel and Raymond.
John Seddon Sr. died on July 23, 1891 and his will lists Ann and the address where they lived - 45 Manchester street in Oldham, England - otherwise known as the Prince of Wales Inn (as does the 1891 England Census).
Yesterday I discovered that on Aug 25, 1891 John Jr married May Wild.
On October 17, 1891, Rose married her first cousin (I believe) - William Palmer. They have 3 children in England - Durham (b. 1892), Elsie ( b.1894), Ada (b.1896).
Yesterday I also discovered that on Jan 27, 1892 Ann married Robert Wild (Marriage record lists both residing at 45 Manchester st). Robert is listed as a widower, and I believe must be the father of John Jr's wife.
On April 19, 1896 I believe John Jr. and Raymond arrived in Halifax ( Ship: Laurentian. Via Library and Archives Canada - page 1). I cannot be 100% sure that these are my relatives as it only lists names and ages - but both those line up.
On April 1, 1898 Rose arrived in Halifax with her husband and three children. ( [Ship: Parisian. Via library and Archives Canada - page 5](https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/passenger-l

It really does, I swear!
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
“BOOM”?!
"That's what they're fighting about."
