* Arthur Dickman was Martha's grandfather, confirmed by the 1861 England Census. The Collingbourne Kingston parish register shows that Martha was the daughter of Elizabeth Dickman, single woman. In 1871 Martha was still living with Arthur Dickman, then aged 77, at which time she is called his father. Evidently Martha grew up in his household.
