The marriage (1878) of Emile Roux (1853-1933) and Rose Anna Shedlock (b. c. 1850).
The great French scientist Emile Roux is widely believed to have been a confirmed bachelor, who on occasion expressed his antipathy towards marriage. However, UK records show that in August 1878 he married Rose Anna Shedlock in London. Her subsequent fate is unknown. While Roux became famous, his marriage remained a secret.
