After re-re-re-reading the message, it finally dawned on me that it's saying it is the new WIFE whose membership record shows a current marriage, not the member in my ward. I'll inform the member in my ward that he needs to have HER ward's clerk update HER record.
If the new wife is now in your ward you should request the records and then you can update her record.

Thank you for that suggestion. That would have simplified things if the two of them were going to be in my ward.
