	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.

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