Hello Nancye

Martino is a mistake. The census for 1851 shows his name as Martin. The o
at the end is merely a flourish by the enumerator who wrote out the sheet.
Likewise his father's name looks to be bungled too and though there are
apparently two tt it looks like an attempt has been made to convert to an
rt - Martin. The address is Hadfield Ct (Court). The apparent e after the H
is just another of the enumerator's curly bits.
