In 1851 1707 /40/28

Relationships are to the head of the household so William is described as father in law to James Freeman.
The girls are described as nieces to James.

1841 443 /3/1
No relationships in this census
William, Jane and Emily are together plus Joseph, 15 yrs.

There are other Robinsons on the same page who may be related.

Hi,

I noticed that although the GRO reference has her name as just Martha ROBINSON the image of the index shows her as Martha Hott ROBINSON. I wonder if that is a clue to who her father was?

In 1841 there is a HOTT family living just 11 miles away in Triplow, Cambridgeshire.

Regards,
Daisy
