Arthur Martin married Emma Martin abt 1886 born (cannot find orignal surname)
I have found the 1911 census and although it gives some good clues i cannot find any more information.They had children emma martin sandiache 1911,charlie martin 1908 nottingham, lily martin 25 dec 1906 she was born ( but it says 1907) in pinxton cannot find her birth.
I am told these are relations to Hollands fair ground travellers and perhaps emmas orignal name is holland??

Sharon, for a child born December 1906, the birth may not have been registered until January 1907 and so would appear in the births registered in the March quarter 1907. Maddie has posted a possible birth for Lily.

EDIT
Mansfield is the registration district for Pinxton
