I was surprised at first, but then I realized that I was looking at it from my perspective.
He was suddenly alone in a new country with a young son. Perhaps family / friends helped him find someone and they got along and thought they could make a family work? Pioneers were often similar. If a spouse died young, the remaining spouse married a friend to help raise the children.
