Perhaps she was an intemperate woman.
(did they actually divorce, or have a permanent seperation or even annulment?)

Since neither remarried, I'm inclined to think they simply separated. I think Pamela said that one census has a "D" beside Weichmann's name; if that's the case, they might have obtained a "divorce from bed and board" which is essentially a legal separation but doesn't leave the spouses free to remarry.
