The March family consisted of nine siblings, all children of George Henry March and his wife Elizabeth Blenkin,[1] and all but one became artists and sculptors. All nine siblings were born in Stoneferry, a suburb of Kingston upon Hull, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.[2][3]

By 1901, the family had moved to Battersea, London, where their father was employed as a builder's clerk.

Three of the March children became sculptors, Sydney, Elsie, and Vernon. The other five artists were Edward, Percival, Frederick, Dudley, and Walter. The ninth sibling was a sister, Eva. Their parents died in 1904.[4][5]

By 1911, all nine siblings, as yet unmarried, were living together in the 17-room house "Goddendene" in Farnborough, Kent, England.[6] Only two of the March siblings ever married, and between them produced three children.[7] Eva married Charles Francis Newman in 1916.[8][9] They had a daughter, Heather.[10] Sydney's brother Frederick married Agnes Annie Gow in 1926.[11] They had two children, Elizabeth and Cecil.[12][13]
