Notes for Alfred Biscoe & Edith Mary (Family)
This marriage was first found from EAP Powys' notebook.

The Essex Standard states that the marriage was at St Stephen’s church and was by Rev Canon [Charles Humphrey] Hill and Rev Charles Powys.

ON Fri 3rd December 1880, The Western Daily Press included this notice on page 8:

“MARRIAGES:  HILL--POWYS-LYBBE--Nov 30, at St Stephen’s Church, Bath, Alfred Biscoe Hill, seventh son of the late Rev Richard Humphry Hill, vicar of Britford, Salisbury, to Edith Mary, second daughter of Philip Lybbe Powys-Lybbe, of Hardwick, Oxon, Esq.”

Note that this is the only instance in which her name was given as ‘Powys-Lybbe’.  I wonder who composed this notice?

Further her brother William did not change his name to P-L until 4th July 1882.
