Hello Darter50,
Welcome to Rootschat
Worth mentioning ..When The Time comes for me, my children will find a few bibles amongst my possessions, with names and dates in them - that are nothing to do with our family. I have collected/rescued a few old bibles that caught my eye, in Op Shops (Charity Shops), (Rummage sales)
As for Martha Hall in the Hull Seaman's & General Orphanage in 1876..... she doesn't appear to be there in 1881:

There is a 15 yrs old Fanny Eliz. Hall enumerated only.
Interestingly there is this 1871 Census:
CENSUS 1871: at 23 James Street, Southcoats, Holderness, Hull
Wife: Mary Ann HALL 41 married, Ship Carpenter's wife, b Beverley Yorkshire
Dau: Martha HALL 7, b Hull
Dau: Fanny E HALL 5, b Hull
Has your Dad's family history been researched on both sides? Is HALL a family name, even if you don't recognise there having been a "Martha"?
Cheers
