Biography

Thaddeus Barleycorn-Barber (1 July 1865 – January 1948) was a medical doctor who was born in Santa Isabel, capital of the Spanish colony on the island of Fernando Po in West Africa. He graduated from Edinburgh University in 1892. He was one of the first black African students in York, England, and is presumably linked with William Barleycorn, the first native Primitive Methodist minister in Fernando Po.
