I have tried to find them on here before but had no luck but NEW INFORMATION HAS COME TO LIGHT WITH ME FINDING OUT ABOUT MARTHA.

BUT - I still cannot find any of them in 1891 an 1901 - they are not with her parents but their son is staying with the Rayner grandparents (in 1891 only - cannot find him in 1901) but not daughter Martha........where are they during this time??? Martha is a less common name so I thought someone could help me with my new lead!!!

thanks Andy, its so frustrating - I was convinced they hadnt gone anywhere and the 1911 information backs it up, just think Bennett must have been really badly transcribed in 1901!
