i have a Louisa Barber in my tree and there is a good chance she married at just 17 to a George Drydale in the Dec quarter of 1893, in Scarborough........i do know the Louisa i have is originally from Hull, she has a sister called Pheobe and a brother called Charles Henry Barber. Please get in touch if you think you can help! Can anyone help me confirm that this Louisa Barber that was born in Hull and had this marriage is the same person? I think the 1901 census may help. Thank you.
