The marraige in Kenya was a ‘tribal’ marraige and Britain did not accept ‘common law’ marraiges (or ones not recognizes by the church, with a witness and/or performed by a licensed individual). There has never been a marraige license (which would have been required in 1957, the year of the tribal marraige), discovered.

And since polygamy was illegal in British Colony Kenya, and the marraige to Ruth Nidesand was VALID enough to require a divorce in Kenya, I’d say that’s pretty good evidence that the ‘first’ marraige to Kezia was NOT a legal and binding marraige.

That would NOT make his marraige to Ann bigamy.
