Hi Keyboard86, Info much appreciated. Elizabeth died 1864. Correct family and born Somerset tells me marriage Axbridge 1853 and maiden name of Jemima - Hewlett. Info from Freebmd so detective work on right line. Easier when given uncommon name to work on. Wonder if Martha and Mary twins.
Thanks again,Syljun
