The girls were taken in by Thomas and Elizabeth Martin. By the 1881 census Lenana was in service, Louisa was now married to Walter Jellis, and her young brother William is with them, and their son.Perhaps Leanna married later in life (perhaps as she was in service; she was 9 years older than her husband). Leanna married James Hyde in 1890 and in the 1891 census William Driver is living with her and James.
