My name is Hil Martin I was born in Terenure Dublin Jan. 9, 1951. My family emigrated to Canada in 1956.
I'm looking for any help I can get regarding my family from Tyrone. My father was Patrick Joseph Martin born 1919. He had 3 brothers and a sister, Kevin, Noel, Francis Donal and Maureen. His mother was Margaret Fox born 25th March 1888 and his Father was James Martin born in 1890 in Tyrone. His paternal grandfather was James Martin born 1859 in Belfast and married Alice Colgan born in 1861 in Tyrone. Please feel free to write to me directly at hmartin@martinstaffing.ca

Hil,
Can you tell us what precisely you are hoping to find? Do you want to trace your family backwards or are you looking for living descendants? Detail would help.

Certainly and thank you for the response. I am searching my family history and am trying to connect the dots. I am using as many avenues as I can. I don't have birth dates for my fathers siblings with the exception of Francis. Any records that are available would be helpful.I would be open to find out any living relatives as well that I may be able to reach out to.

Here’s your grandparents marriage in Dungannon in 1915:
James in 1901 & 1911. He had 1 sibling who had died by 1911.
