Children:-
Beatrice born abt 1895
Frederick born 1897 Richmond Y. (settled in Wales)
Mary Frances born 1899 Richmond Y.
John Bernard born 1900 Sunderland

George William Martin died during the Boer War. Mary Ann, his wife remarried, possibly to a John BURKE (she was living with him in 1901). The Martins settled in Leeds Yorkshire.
John Bernard Martin left home at age 12 to be a ship boy and eventually joined the Merchant Navy. He fought in WW1 and then immigrated to Australia about 1926 - married and had a child, Jacqueline in 1929 Sydney area. Jacqueline is looking for any relatives she might have in England and Wales.
It is believed Frederick settled in Wales.

Hi, I am trying to locate someone in Wales - this is rather urgent and any assistance I receive will be greatly appreciated $$. I am looking for a woman by the name of Nicola who lives in Wales (not sure where, whether it is in Cardiff or not). She is 40 years old, two children, and has a common-law spouse who's name is Paul and who is a well-known decorator in Wales (again, not sure if it is in Cardiff or not). Her sister's name is Dominique, I believe, and she has recently travelled to Cancun in October, to Toronto and San Diego with a Steve Krawiec (who is from Mississauga). If you can assist me in finding this person, it would be greatly appreciated as I urgently need to contact!! Will be worth your while. $$
