The Family of May Azzaro (Nee Pettit):Information about Barbara Hards
Barbara Hards (b. 1846, d. date unknown)
Notes for Barbara Hards:
1.Her maiden name might be Riggs, since Reuben Baker is said to have a father-in-law called Arthur Riggs in the 1881 census.(See the notes on Reuben.)However, he looks a bit young, and his place of birth is a bit funny.
2.FreeBMD have a record of the marriage of Reuben Baker in Brighton in 2nd Qtr 1868.One of the candidates is a Barbara Hards.This one is clear favourite because (a) to agree with the 1881 census we want a christian name of Barbara, and (b) it would make her (almost certainly) a sister to Ann Hards who married William Baker.(ie. They were both born in Salisbury).(None of the other candidates has a name anything like Riggs.)
