Widow to remarry

What is the name of your state? GA

If my spouse died and I now wish to remarry, do I have to get divorced first?

Uhh...No. You are a widow.

Only if your spouse was brain dead.

Gosh - who'd want to get married?! Count yourself lucky that you don't have to get divorced since you're a widow. And emulate Goldie Hawn and just live together. Much simpler...

As a remarried widow myself, I can assure you that even the nasiest of divorces is a piece of cake compared to losing your spouse. Believe me, most of the time, widows are NOT lucky if thier marriage was happy.

No you don't have to get a divorce.
Congrats on moving on with your life and I hope your new marriage brings you all good things. (I know mine did).
