With an unusual surname it is usually easy to find out possibility of marriages by visiting the free site www.freebmd.org.uk

Good luck

E.G.

Marriages Dec 1910 (>99%)
Leddra Henry P Penzance 5c 537

Marriages Sep 1917 (>99%)
Leddra George Hancock Penzance 5c 343

Only copies of the certificates will confirm whether these are actually the people you are enquiring about.
