The most puzling thing here is why Martha was brought up by the Trollips, as her mother was still alive, and who the John Trollip is that her mother is supposed to have married - was she perhaps an illegitimate Trollip?

p139: Letter dated 2.2.1864: My youngest son, George, who married about ayear ago, is living with his brother-in-law, John Trollip at Daggaboer. John is very kind to him, he (George) has upwards of 1000 sheep of his own besides hired ones and his brother-in-law (who is very rich) gives him grazing gratis for all his stock. George's wife, I hear, came into Cradock yetserday to be confined.
George had had married Martha Adendorff, a girl whom the Trollips had taken into their home, and their first child was a boy Horatio George.
