Martha Marsh (b.Marton, Warwickshire 1858 - d. Kent 1925), married George Marsh in Kent 1882.

On 1881 census she is working as an attendant at Kent County Lunatic Asylum in Chartham, Kent, under her maiden name (Baskott).

I can't find her on GR free indexes on 1891 census but on 1901 (DOB as 1859) she is living in Ashford, Kent area, and on 1911 (DOB as 1861) she is living in West Ashford, Kent.

Many thanks.
