I searched for Martha in 1861 and uncovered one more sister for Charles! (Not sure where she is hiding on earlier - or later! - census, and I can't see her marriage either! )

1861
RG9/1687 14 22 & 23
Bath ST James, Somerset
18 St James Parade
William Knight, head, 24, Brass Finisher, b. Bath
Ellen M, wife, 26, Mantle Maker, b. do.
Ellen Mary, dau, 1, b. do.
Martha J Hannay, sister in law, 17, Milliner, b. do.
Margaret Dodd, grandmother, wid, 77, b. Cheshire Chester

I'm having a look at the other siblings.

James is in the army in Lancashire in 1851. As far as I can tell he marries a widow, Mary Ann Langley, in 1852 and is a Police Constable at Southwark in 1861. Possible death James Ralph Hannay, age 38, in Mar 1867 Bermondsey.
Shout if you want census details (1861: RG9/330 23 39; widow & children 1871: RG10/635 122 57)

William marries a Sarah (maybe Williams). 3 children shown in 1861 (RG9/1687 35 5). Widowed by 1871 (RG10/2481 73 41) Possible death age 53 in Mar 1888, Bath

and finally Henry ...

1861
RG9/4105 29 3
Swansea, Glamorgan
5 Willow Court
Henry Hanney, 26, Labourer, b. Bath
Sarah, wife, 23
Henry, son, 3, b. Bath

He's not at home in 1881 but Sarah is shown as married:
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1881&indiv=try&h=18817604
RG11/2442 28 8

If this is his death:
Henry Jacob Hanney age 51 - Dec 1886 Bath 5c 417

then this is a likely marriage: Henry Jacob Hanney - Sarah Bishop Dec 1858 Swansea 11a 727 


You do have your Charles on every census I suppose? 

[genuisscuffy]

Not all, I knew he was the father of my GGrandmother and that he was born in Bath - but somewhere along the line the Hannay/Hanneys became Montagues (when they changed their names I'm not sure) but all the children have middle names of Hannay and James was the first Hannay I had.

[Tati]

Was your ggmother Emma M Hanney?

Charles seems to be Hanney until 1901 

[genuisscuffy]

No my GGrandmother was Elizabeth Sarah Montague  1886- Charles Hanney married(?) a Mary Force and Elizabeth and Frederick were his children along with quite a few others.  She was born in Southsea, Portsmouth, Hants (also known as Portsea Island)
