Regarding Martha Frampton, (m. John Owen Cruse), I have her lineage going back to 1679 in Walton, Somerset.  She also had a brother Charles Frampton, who emigrated as well, and settled & died in Victoria.  I have photos of both John and Martha Cruse, and some of the descendants if anyone is interested.  Mary Cruse, the mother of John Owen also came to Australia, and she died in South Australia in 1871.
