Martin Report 26 Dec 2012 14:28

I am trying to find ancestors of Thomas Faulkner born Whitwick Leicestershire Circa 1866 His father's name given on his marriage certificate of December 1888 was James (a family name) and also his brother my great uncle Martin born circa 1880 in Hanley Staffordshire. All these details are found in the 1911 census his residence at that time was South Kirkby West Riding of Yorkshire.I have been at a brick wall now for several years on this family line and would dearly like to find some answers. Any definate leads would be greatly appreciated.

Martin's birth should be on freebmd...........

What leads you to think that Martin, who is a 'boarder' in 1911 was Thomas's brother?
