Hi Marjorie.
The 1920/1930 censuses hopefully told you where Martha Amanda's parents were born, which can help you verify this.
I checked the 1870 census and found only one white child named Martha Lane (there were no Amandas or Manda/Mandys) who was aged 10 and lived in Ohio.She happened to live in Meigs County.There was also a 9-year old which could be a possibility.
Here is the 1860 and 1870 census info for the Meigs-county Martha.(1880 is available free at ancestry.com)
1870 United States Federal Census > Ohio > Meigs > Lebanon > Page 65
Dwelling 77/Family 77
Brandon Lane, 34, male, white, farmer, $530 personal property, b WV, reads, writes
Matilda, 34, female, white, housekeeping, b OH, reads, cannot write
Lewis A, 14, male, white, farm laborer, b OH
John G., 13, white, farm laborer, b OH
Martha A., 10, female, white, housework, OH
William E., 8, white, at home, b OH
Fredrick F, 6, male, white, at home, b OH
Mary E., 4, female, white, at home, b OH
Nicholas P., 2, male, white, at home, b OH
Sarah L., 4 months (b Jan 1870), white, at home, b OH
1860 United States Federal Census > Ohio > Meigs > Lebanon > Page 200
Dwelling 1484/Family 1485
B. Lane, 24, male,w hite, farmer, $200 personal property, b VA
Matilda, 24, female, white, b Ohio, cannot read or write
Lewis, 3, b Oh
John, 2, b OH
Martha, 3 months, b OH
Henry Oars?, 27, male, white, b OH
The Martha Lane who was aged 9 in the 1870 census lived in Trumbull county.Her parents were born in Ohio (father) and NY (mother).If you think this better fits your Martha, let me know and I will look that up for you.
The 1860 census listed only 1 Edward Rawling(s) who was under a year old.This is likely your Edward:
1860 United States Federal Census > Virginia > Jackson > Page 561 (or 117, depending on which number)
Dwelling 797/Family 752.
John Rawlings, 58, male, white, mason, $2000 property, $240 personal property, b England
Martha, 40, female, white, b Maryland
Richd, 17, male, farm laborer, b VA
Russel B., 14, b VA
Francis, 8, female, b VA, attends school
Mary, 6, b VA, attends school
Adelia, 4, female, b VA, attends school
Edwd, 10 months, b VA
