In the 1911 census there is a May BARKER age 17 living with her sister Miriam JENNER at 11 Beaconsfield Road - could this be the person you are looking for? However there is a problem in that the only BARKER born in 1893/4 in the Mutford Registration District was Charlotte May BARKER. One possibility is that your Mars Alice BARKER is a married woman which would lead me to finding out whether May BARKER had any brothers who married prior to 1919. One other course of action would be to email the Suffolk Record Office at Lowestoft to see if they have any directories or electoral rolls for that period. As Electoral Rolls are in street order they would not be difficult to search in this instance. Brian
