Leigh,
You are right about his wife still being alive in 1954
her death is listed as follows
Digger - Death Index. Victoria 1921-19
Surname: BECKER
Given Names: Hannah Elizabeth
Father: Chance Unknown
Mother: UNKNOWN
Death Place: ABBO
Age: 85
Age Code:
Year: 1969
Reg Number: 15042
Event: D
If you are sure you have the correct Alexander then this is strange that he would say that isn't it?
Unless they had divorced and he had married again and that wife had died?
Nothing unusual about a 1st wife being buried under her married name even if divorced but of course none of this may apply in this case
