Note
Note: NOTE: Martha and Jane appear as two entries on the 1841 Census, but with the same age, which implies (maybe) they were twins.

NOTE: Martha and Jane appear as two entries on the 1841 Census, but with the same age, which implies (maybe) they were twins.

However, there doesn't appear to be a Baptism record for Martha, only Jane in 1837 at Glastonbury. This may be an error in the register.

Jane appears to have died in 1841, following which, Martha seems to have become Martha Jane when she married in 1863. This may have been in honour of her twin sister.
