Have you looked for her using variants of the surname? |

Apparently Martha returned to domestic service and the grandparents brought up young Willie . She had another son Frederick in 1887 and married John Winter Hempstock in 1888 they had a further 2 sons; sydney winter and John Henry(jack) . her husband took the 2nd child on but not Willie . There is a theory that Willie was the son of a member of the BIg house but as I can't find martha davison anywhere on the 1881 census I don't know who else lived there . |

But we'd like to know where she was working in 1881 ;her proffession is given as domestic servant on birth certificate of first son William Thomas in 1883 . |
