Thank you everyone. I have much more to work with now than I did a few hours ago. I'll follow everything through tomorrow. Susan Martin is a brickwall smashed.  :D

How sure are you about the 1841 census entry for Susan in Hackney. There is a Susannah Martin aged 14 living in Poplar, not born in county.

SS

Not sure of it at all. Poplar seems a better fit. Thank you.

There's a marriage John Martin and Mary Clarke 7th Apr 1822 in South Petherton too.  ???

The occupation labourer fits much better with this family than gent!

South Petherton doesn't seem that far away from Bridport?

I have searched for the youngest child, Sarah Caroline born 1859 but she died in 1862. The next youngest was Emily but I can't find her at all. And then Alfred Noah born 1855. I have found him in 1871 in Ramsgate, Kent as an apprentice baker. He had a few months in Poplar Workhouse in 1868.

The census references for Susan Temple [Martin] in 1851 and 1861 are:-

HO107/1554/483 p42
RG 9/307/95 p56

So a GRO digital image of the youngest child's death would be the way forward. I will order tomorrow.

Do you think "Poplar Union" would point to the workhouse?

I have ruled out the Susanna Temple/Frederick Francis marriage on 17th Oct 1869 in Limehouse. She was a spinster with her father's name William Temple.

Can you rule out the Susan Martin who died 1913 Willesden Middlesex born 1827 in case she reverted to Martin for some reason.

Is 1861 the last sighting of her?

Yes. I can't find her in 1871. I have searched for the youngest child, Sarah Caroline born 1859 but she died in 1862. The next youngest was Emily but I can't find her at all. And then Alfred Noah born 1855. I have found him in 1871 in Ramsgate, Kent as an apprentice baker. He had a few months in Poplar Workhouse in 1868.

The census references for Susan Temple [Martin] in 1851 and 1861 are:-

Class: HO107; Piece: 1554; Folio: 483; Page: 42; GSU roll: 174786
Class: Rg 9; Piece: 307; Folio: 95; Page: 56; GSU roll: 542611

I hadn't thought that she might have reverted to her maiden name.

In the absence if any other info a possibility to consider is that she was illegitimate & her mother married Mr Martin & she took his surname

I was thinking along those lines but differently. That she was illegitimate and Martin was her mother's maiden name. Then at her marriage in 1849, John Martin, gent was invented.

Sorry only just seen your post. I am a direct descendent of William Dicks [1786-1851] who is the brother of your ancestor, Isaac Dicks [1789-1836]. Please feel free to message if I can help with anything.  :)
