Thanks Guys for this info,

What I have is,
on Eliz Martin marriage lines she married a Charles E Butler in 1897 in Liverpool the age is either 25 or 28 her father is Thomas a Farmer.
Then on the1901 census there are a number of details and that she is 31 now (born Ireland) so working back assumed birth is 1870 also it has an Annie Martin aged 21 born Ireland sister in law to head (Charles E Butler) by the 1911 Census she had died have her death certificate she died 1907. No further Details. So that seems to be the end of my Martin History just a note I can trace Charles family to 1500's

Regards
Maria

Have you tried to find her sister Annie in 1911 as that may give more detail to her place of birth?

Dear Catherine,

There is no address for the census record for Martins are they in Ireland or England?

If this is the right family you have broken years of dead lock. Does it give any details of marriage or births on these people. At the end of 1911 census does that suggest been married 47 years and had 7 children.

Can you suggest where to look now?

Best wishes Maria :-)

Dear Alviegal,

They are the correct records for Charles and elizabeth, thanks for that I hope the records Catherine has posted are correct i would be interested about other siblings.

I would doubt that the family in Ireland is the correct one if the information given on the 1911 census is correct. They state 7 children born and 7 still living. Had your Elizabeth not died by 1911? Assume she had if her husband had remarried by 1911.

Dear Rootgatherer,

Yes I see your point i was getting all excited i don't believe unless there was a mistake when filling in census. Also i was dubious about Annie's career on 1901 census in UK she was a domestic servant then on the above 1911 census she was a school teacher. I wonder if that would really happen.

Regards Maria :-)
