Hi Vanessa
Thank you for your help. I had some of the above but had an e-mail from someone telling me I had the wrong mother of John and she also had wrong dates so ended up totally confused as a lot of the names the same .
John Martin 1838 married Jane Spruce 1839-1907 in 1859 and Mark Martin and Jane Wellings were his parents.
My mother in law is the g/g grandaughter of John and Jane Spruce. and we knew nothing about this family.
I haven't done a lot on them so they will be my next project.

Regards Robyn

Probable children of Jane & Mark Martin:

Gender: Male Christening: 04 FEB 1828 Saint Peter Or Collegiate, Wolverhampton, Stafford, England

52. SAMUEL MARTIN - International Genealogical Index / BI
Gender: Male Christening: 29 MAR 1824 Saint Peter Or Collegiate, Wolverhampton, Stafford, England

The entry for Jane (1846) is NOT an extracted record so should be treated with caution

Do you know if Jane had any siblings? This would appear to be a brother of the Jane above:

Based purely on the same location as the marriage, but not conclusive just because it seems to fit.
