What happened to Martha?

[GenesA]

Martha Dudley was born around 1822 in Darlaston to Joseph Dudley & Elizabeth Perry. Her father was a lock filer and died the same year she was born.

In 1841, Martha worked as a servant for butcher Joseph Cockram.

In 1844, Martha’s daughter Elizabeth was born at Walsall Union Workhouse. Another child, a son named Thomas, was born in 1848 also at the workhouse. No father’s name is given for either of her children.

In 1851 and 1861, the children are living with John & Jemima Nicholas who seem to have brought them up.
Martha, however, completely disappears. I’ve looked for potential marriages and deaths but can’t seem to find one that fits.

Thanks but I think the Martha Dudley you have found was born around 1808 and living in Sedgley in 1861 with her husband Thomas Harrison. But at least we can eliminate her
