please can anyonye help? this is proving to be a mystery to me

Samantha: I can't help with ships to the UK, but after work I can check for him on census forms in the USA, so we might be able to find out when he was last here.

thanks

Well he was in the UK by 1834/5 to have Ann. but immigration records tend to be those landing in the US rather tham the UK 1841 Eng Name: Martin Luther Age: 37 Estimated birth year: abt 1804 Household: View other family members Gender: Male Where born: Foreign Parts Civil parish: Bridlington Hundred: Dickering County/Island: Yorkshire Country: England Source information: HO107/1213/6 Registration district: Bridlington Sub-registration district: Bridlington ED, institution, or vessel: 3 Folio: 5 Page: 5 Name Estimated birth year Birthplace Civil parish County/Island Ann Luther abt 1835 Yorkshire, England Elizabeth Luther abt 1804 Yorkshire, England Martin Luther abt 1804 Foreign Parts - Ag Lab Martin Luther abt 1839 Yorkshire, England Mary Luther abt 1840 Yorkshire, England Living in Pinfold Street 1851 Eng Name: Martin C Luther Age: 47 Estimated birth year: abt 1804 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Elizabeth Gender: Male Where born: Maryland, United States Civil parish: Bridlington Town: Bridlington County/Island: Yorkshire Country: England Registration district: Bridlington Sub-registration district: Skipsea ED, institution, or vessel: 6c Household schedule number: 45 Household Members: Name Age John Anderson 29 - lodger William Foxcroft 29 - lodger Elizabeth Luther 50 - b.

Hi Samantha
I too have been trying to find out information on Martin Collingwood Luther from Maryland. I haven't been able to get any further back in time than him but I see you have said his father was also Martin. Where did you find this out? I was wondering if you know which COUNTY in Maryland he originated. Do you know Martin Luther Snr's approx date of birth?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Gillian, this is a very old thread. I doubt that Samantha is still checking it. You could click on her name and send a personal message.
