Confused?!

You mention Henrietta Laing Matheson, Richard Henderson Smith in the first sentence?

Then a long list of Martin people - seemingly all unrelated to the first two names?

I have no idea what it is you actually want?!

Incidentally, you won't have any descendants (unless you have children) - so I assume you are looking for information on your ancestors!

[carolhuia.smith]

Yes any information on these ancestors would be great
James William Martin and Eliza King, Elizabeth Avery and her children, I have no other info on them, their spouse and any children, birth, marriage and death dates if possible, and for Gertrude, Annie, Ernest, James Martin, Samuel Mihaka Martin also.
Henrietta and Richard Henderson Smith are the parent of Charles Arthur Smith, who is my dad's father. I would like to find Charles Siblings, his parents got a divorce when he was young, and he stayed with his mum all his other siblings went with the father. Their names are: Maud born 20 November 1897, Richard Henderson born 19 June 1898, Ellen born 1901, Donald born 23 August 1900, Nellie stillborn no birth/death dates, Alexander John Matheson born 1 May 1903, Catherine Drysdale born 19 December 1904. I received a 36 page document on their divorce from a family member of Henrietta. Would love to find anything about his siblings.

Hi Carol, I am not sure exactly where you are up to particularly with your Dad's research. It may be best if you do some of this yourself get it into some form of organised family tree and set out the descendants into family groups.

Best start point is a notepad and pencil and concentrate on one family at a time, it will all fall into place eventually. If you get to a particular person and get stumped then get back online and we can try and solve the "brickwall" for you.

There are lots of places to get the info, knowing where is the real get going, here are a couple of best one's.

Good luck and happy hunting.
