Narrative

Martha Albury, the daughter of James Albury and his wife Frances, was baptised at the Church of St Peter, Petersfield on 12 January 1795. (St Peter's was a chapelry in the north of the ancient Parish of Buriton, Hampshire.)

Martha Albery (sic) married William Reeves on 1 February 1832 at Alverstoke in Hampshire.

Neither William nor Martha have yet been identified on the 1841 census.

At the time of the 1851 census, it is believed that this is the Martha now living on Joseph Street, Bingham Town in the Parish of Alverstoke; now part of the urban area of Gosport. Martha Reeves is a widow, who claims birth in Petersfield and is 53 years old.

A decade later and the 1861 census shows Martha still living on Joseph Street, now described as New Town in the Parish of Alverstoke. She remains a widow and still claims birth in Petersfield. Her age is now given as 66, which matches the 1795 baptism.

Martha Reeves has not be identified on the 1871 census. FreeBMD has a possible D. Reg. in Alverstoke Reg. Dist. during the September quarter of 1861 for a Martha Reeves.

However, FreeBMD also has a marriage registration in Alverstoke during the March quarter of 1863 involving a Martha Reeves, with husband as either Thomas BATCHELOR or Joseph John FRANCES.
Thomas & Martha Batchelor are found on the 1871 census at 60 King Street, Gosport. Co-incidentally Martha Batchelor is 76 years old and born in Petersfield. FreeBMD has a strongly matching D. Reg. in Alverstoke Reg. Dist. in September quarter of 1876 for a Martha Batchelor aged 81. Further research on this individual would be helpful.
