Martin Report 5 Apr 2011 13:38

Many thanks to all of you that replied to my query.

I have got the information as printed in the 1911 census but unfortunately cannot find him anywhere else. I am so disappointed about this as my grandfather was Thomas Faulkner and as with Martin cannot seem to find any trace of them previous to the 1901 census that can be verified. I am desperate to discover my Grt. grandfather but unfortunately seem to be at the proverbial brick wall. Many thanks once again for taking the trouble to contact me.

I'm sure that the Martin I have posted about is the same one as yours.
I just haven't found Martin Faulkner/Falkner /Davis in 1901.
