The Pike County Journal
Zebulon, Pike County, Georgia: February 19, 1892

Leap Year Marriages

David Huckaby and Miss Cora Quick were married at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. Cooper, 
near Zebulon last Tuesday. The young lady lived in Coweta county and came to Zebulon on the 
southbound train Sunday evening where she was met by her lover and carried to Mrs. Cooper’s. On 
Monday morning, bright and early, they came to Zebulon after [a] license and to get married, but 
the father of the young man had instructed Ordinary Wells not to issue the license as his son was 
only 19 years of age. David was not ready to  give in,  however, and a runner was sent out with 
instructions to get a marriage license before he came back. He succeeded in getting them from 
the ordinary of Spalding county and the young couple, Mr. and Mrs. Huckaby, are living at Cooper’s. 
The bride is the senior partner of the firm and is a sister of F.W. Quick, now under sentence of 
death at this place.

Notes:
Possibly the writer meant that Cora was older than David (senior partner in the firm)
