Nottingham....Niblett 1875 Wiffen 1872

When did William and Florence marry? What was Martha's married name and when and where was Edgar born?

The only way you will confim the relationship is to check that Florence and Martha had the same father, probably from their marriage certs.

Thanks i just need to know if she had a sister called Martha as i hve a photograph of who i believe is her son..

wow too complicated....
what was Edgars surname,
what was the sisters married surname ?

If you look for her on the 1881 census - which you can search yourself for free - she should be lviing with her family.

I believe that Florences father was walter william/william walter wiffen 1831-1903 Essex

If hwat Mark has posted appears correct coule be him on the 1881 - also Martha on the census

On 1881 census Martha is Mother (and Housekeeper - not married until 1874) not Sister. So Edgar was Florence's brother.
