Hi my name is Kath and whilst browsing the internet I came across your site.  I am reaching my fathers ancestry and was born in  

Belfast 2/10/1929 his name is Raymond Martin and his parents where James Alexander Martin born 1892 and his mother Kathleen Martin (nee Monaghan) born about 1899.    I notice that my grandmother Anna Marie Martin (nee Bell) born about 1861 was a child of John and Emily and they had 11 children.  Anna married John Henry Martin 1888 in Belfast.  They had 2 children Emily Alice 16/01/1890 in Gortnaguig and my grandfather James born 24/07/1890.  In 1891 Anna and John where living in Scotland but returned back to Ireland and living in Belfast.  I also found out that mt ggreatmother travelled to Canada with my grandfather 1912/1913.   They travelled from Liverpool onboard the Empess of Ireland.  They lived in Winnipeg he 24/121914 mt grandfather enlisted CEF and joined 17th battery 5th brigade.  I could not fine any else until that in 1919 my ggreatmother was back in Ireland living at 2 Maryville avenue, Lisbon Road and this was also the year she passed away and my grandfather paid £1 for the burial plot.  I was hoping if anyone could fill in the gaps and also have any information regarding John Henry Martin Anna Marie's husband.
