On February 12th, 1894, at St. Thomas Church, Granton, by Rev. George Beamish and Rev. John Holmes. We show the year of marriage as 1894. This agrees with other entries on the page. The last digit of the year is cut off, however, by the way the page is torn. Entries for Biddulph are disordered, probably to do with time of submission. It is possible that the marriage year of 1895, though 1894, in context, seems more likely. |
