The IGI has:
THOMAS FRUDE- ELIZABETH COLLINS 
Marriage  15 JUN 1828   Stoke Gabriel, Devon

If you order Martha's birth cert and it gives her mother as Frude formerly Collins then at least you'll have solved that part of the puzzle!  Smiley

Just trying to trace the family on census and I see Caleb (who'd be either her brother or her uncle is in Lancashire as well by 1881, birthplace Torquay)

I see what you mean. It did not occur to me that her father might be Thomas Sr., as you put it. It seems highly likely that this is the solution. This is the point I was hoping to get to, to at least be reasonably sure that this is the right Martha Froude. I will order her birth certificate. Would you like me to let you know how it worked out at least?

Merci beaucoup!

I wonder what happened to Thomas Jr. He would have been about 13 years old in 1841. Perhaps at that time he might have already been living somewhere else as say an apprentice?

Thanks for all this invaluable information. Do you have a particular subscription to access all this stuff? I can't figure out what to do.

Just thinking why they give their birth places as Torquay...

In 1861, John Froude is staying at Tormoham Torquay with his sister Emma (now called Curtis).
Joshua is staying in Tormoham as well, with a family named Farleigh (coincidence? His sister Harriett is married to a Farleigh too, again in Tormoham)

Was hoping to find Martha in Tormoham but I can't  Sad
(There's a possible death for Elizabeth Froude March quarter 1857 Newton Abbot)

I can't identify Thomas in 1841, but in 1851 he's lodging at Peignton Devon.

Still searching for all the siblings to see if one of them has Martha with them.
Elizabeth 'Fruade' marries a George Debrix, a master mariner, in 1855. By 1871 she's living in Toxteth Park Lancashire, oldest child age 7 born Lancashire. Still searching for her in 1861 ...

Wow, you don't give up! By the way, I like your colloquial French (Oh que oui)!

I was just compiling some of the information from yesterday. It seems as though Martha's father and mother died when she was about 18 months and 5 years old, respectively. She seems to have been the last of 9 children, born 7 years after the 8th, Caleb (a daughter apparently), when her father and mother, Thomas and Elizabeth, were about 56 and 45 years old, respectively. Perhaps it is for this reason that she ended up in the Devon House of Mercy, i.e. because both of her parents had died, although this is pure speculation, since wouldn't she have been taken care of by her much older brothers and sisters, and anyway she is already 18 years old when she is listed as being there.

I will try to find out more and get the birth certificate.

We really need to know whose daughter she was exactly! Shame I can't ID all the other Froude children on the 1861 census. (Caleb is a boy by the way). 

Who were her marriage witnesses? What was Thomas' occupation on the cert?

I do not see Thomas' occupation on the marriage certificate. Joseph was a gardener.

I think the witnesses are James and Isabella Barlow, if I'm reading this correctly. Interestingly, Joseph and Martha's first child was Thomas Froude Sillitoe and the second was William Barlow Sillitoe, and based on some information I got from my relative, I thought that Barlow was perhaps Martha's mother's maiden name, but this does not tie up with the theory that her mother was Elizabeth Collins.

Sorry. What I mean is that Thomas Froude's profession is marked as "not known".

Which would tie in with him being dead for a long time ...

I'm struggling to find a likely James/Isabella Barlow couple. I can only see this pair
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1881&indiv=try&h=10540667
RG11/3952 141 34
but they're in Salford & not the sort of age I was expecting. (Then of course witnesses aren't necessarily related! Tongue

And also that she was far removed from her (late) parents and family, having moved up north.

I'll let you know if I have any further insights or information.

I knew I had seen this somewhere. The information you gave me from the 1851 census has Caleb apparently listed as a daughter, i.e.

1851
HO107/1873 139 17
Stoke Gabriel, Devon
Village
Thomas Frude, head, 56, Farm Labourer, b. Blackawton
Elizabeth, wife, 43, b. Dartmouth
Emma, dau, 16, servant, b. Stoke Gabriel
John, son, 8, scholar, b. do.
Caleb, dau, 6, scholar, b. do.
Elizabeth, dau, unm, 20, servant, b. do.
