Hello Roy, I won't go into great details as this is an old site so not sure if your email address is still current.  I am descended from John and Hannah Martin's son Henry (brother to your Samuel).  Henry and his wife Dorothea Taylor emigrated to Australia in 1838. Dawn

Hello Dawn
Very nice to hear from you.

I can see some of my Posts and the replies date back to 2017.
 
I recognise the name of Samuel Martin, he was the father of Christiana Martin.
Christiana Martin married Thomas Willard on 4th November 1871 at St Mary's Parish Church, Salehurst, Sussex.

One of the children of this marriage was George Henry Willard 1886-1965 he was the father of my father: George Alfred Willard 1911-1997.  I was born in 1946.

So I have a photograph of Christiana Willard nee Martin and my father and grandfather. Out of interest Christiana was known as Kate throughout her married life and as a Widow.

I am using my grandsons computer in his bedroom at the moment, so he's going to bed shortly-early riser for work!!

It would be nice if we could contact by email, I do not use Face book etc.  At the moment I cannot remember the procedure to contact each other, but I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards
Roy

Roy I can't seem to be able to  privately message which is a bit of a nuisance. Probably something to do with Rootschat being so old.  Do you have a tree on ancestry or MyHeritage that I can message through there? The photo is lovely, but I haven't tried to download it yet. I have a photo of Henry & Dorothea that I can send to you if interested but would prefer to do it through email.  . Dawn

Not at all, new members do not have access to the PM option until they have made 2 posts to prove that they are genuine folk.

Thanks Sarah, I hope I can now message.  I did have an old account from years ago, but couldn't remember any details and just presumed due to how long the forum has been around that it had something to do with that.
