Jane Report 28 Aug 2008 00:35

Augustus Paul Theodore Martin born and died dates not known he married Sarah maiden name unknown I only know that Sarah died 1927 as she is in a family grave. They had a daughter Blanche who married Aurther Gilbert in 1901 in Prescot St.Helens. Can any-one find when Augustus and Sarah were born and when he died also Sarah's maiden name as I can't seem to get any further with my tree.Any information would be helpful.

Thanks to Mrs Bucket, Shirley, Lindsay and Teresa
You have answered some of the questions for me. Yes Sarah is buried in family grave I have date of headstone 11th march 1927 age 80 years widow of Augustus Paul Theodore Martin this is how it is on stone that is how I have his name. also my parents are buried there too and it is in Southport Merseyside
Augustus did not give his full name then by all accounts just went by the name Paul Martin in the census of 1891 that was why I could not find him. I will get on to getting certs now you all have give me more info Thanks again.
