Martha has previously been shown as daughter of William de Plumpton and Christiana de Mowbray. The only basis for this Burke's Commoners (see general sources) which, in the Palmes of Naburn section, says that Brian Palmes married a daughter (first name not given) of William Plumpton. Douglas Richardson[1] records only two children, Robert and Alice, for William de Plumpton and Christiana de Mowbray, and no other source has yet been found for Martha being a child of theirs. Burke's Commoners does not give evidence of her first name. In the absence of any reliable evidence, Martha's previously-shown parents have been detached.
