Hi Mary,
No relation, just giving my opinion.I'd say yes, that it is the same family.Yes, it looks like Martha should be about 58/59 in 1900.Ages are not always correct on census & possibly one of the children gave the info.As far as Edwin/Edward goes, it could have been a miscommunication on one or the other census, or maybe one or the other is his middle name. In the 1880 census, the image shows Charley as the 2 year old. Also, on the 1900 census I do not see James as 28, rather 18 years old, born Feb 1882.Curious as to why he is the head.
