I am researching the Martin family, first in Castletown, then in Liverpool. The 1841 Liverpool census has David Martin, age 80, born Ireland. His son, Robert Martin, was b. 1803 in Castletown, IOM, and d. 1883 in Liverpool. I do not know when he moved to Liverpool and married Emma Gardiner from Redbrook, Newland Parish, Gloucestershire. Their grandson, Samuel George Martin, b. 1872, moved to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, where he married my mother's mother in 1893. I have this family in the 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, and 1881 Liverpool censuses. Robert's birth in 1803 seems to be before records were kept. Would be grateful for any advice on where to look for him in IOM records. And, would like to hear from other Martin researchers. Thank you. Shirley
