I believe this Absalom Homer

Is the father of Martha Homer, wife of Samuel Siviter.

Absalom's mother is a Martha, so it would make sense for his first born girl child to be called Martha.

Martha may have been born out of wedlock, or at least soon after the nuptials, for her baptism to be so close.

Well????
