Yes - Maria Louisa Martyn bn 15 Oct 1833 ... for some reason she was baptised twice.
Father was Charles Cecil Martyn bn 18 Feb 1803. GF was Charles Fuller Martyn bn 1758 in Charleston Carolina. Charles Fuller was Sherriff of Calcutta in 1790 - had a long standing affair with an Indian lady called Marie - so Charles Cecil and Francis Mountjoy were Anglo Indian. Have you come across Francis Mountjoys involvement with a Miss Howard and Napolean III ? The Martyn family line traces back to Nicholas Martiau bn France 1591 ... he's also the oldest known direct relative of George Washington.
Her mother was Maria Georgiana Elliot (the christian names echo back up the family tree for about 4 generations) bn 1811 London. Maria Georgiana's Grandfather was John Coakley Lettsom (Google him).
I've got a lot more and am happy to send over any info I have if you want it.
Regards
Mark
