Martha was married to a Christopher Appleton. In the 1871 cences they had two children Sarah and Christopher. In the 1891 Martha was a widow and lived with George Brazell and Ellen with two step kids for George who were Sarah and Christopher Appleton Ellens kids. Then in 1901 Ellen married again with Martha living with George and Ellen Love, stating that Martha was the mother in law. This is where I am stuck I cannot find a child named Ellen for Martha. Also I believe that Sarah and Chris were Illigitemate to Ellen . Help me please thank you regards Christine.

This looks like Ellen's marriage to George Love - the certificate would give you her father's name, to confirm that she was Christopher's daughter
