Martin Frank 11 Male Son Co Antrim Wool Weaver in Mill - Single >>>age is 17 on image
Martin Emma 7 Female Daughter Scotland Scholar - Single
Martin Maggie 5 Female Daughter Scotland - Single
Martin Mary 4 Female Daughter Scotland - Single

And this must be the family in1901 but minus Frank senior.......

Residents of a house 31 in Finlay Street (Shankhill, Antrim)

Maguire Thomas 63 Male Head of Family Co Tyrone Mill Labourer Married -
Maguire Margaret 55 Female Wife Co Tyrone Housekeeper Married -
Martin Bella 24 Female Daughter Co Tyrone Spinner Married -
Martin Bridget 9 Female Niece Co Tyrone Scollar Not Married -
Martin Francis 6 Male Niece Co Antrim Scollar Not Married -
Maguire Hugh 19 Male Son Co Tyrone Rougher Not Married -
Maguire George 16 Male Son Co Tyrone Wood Turner Not Married -
Maguire Robert 14 Male Son Co Tyrone Mill Worker Not Married -
Maguire Susan 12 Female Daughter Co Tyrone Scoller Not Married -

I wonder if this could possible be Frank?

Right surname, age, occupation and birthplace ......and as he was in Scotland maybe he was known as Mick and the enumerator thought his name was Michael. Just a thought???

Hi Cathy & Marion

Thanks for the updates.

Must dash..............


Suzanne

Hi Cathy & Marion

Got Emma Martin's Birth details on Scotlands people confirming parents names and marriage details too. All match my details.

Not checked maggie & marys birth's.

Did check this Michael Martin on the census. Don't think its "my" Francis/Frank as he is listed on the census as single.

Those 1901/1911 irish cenus records are correct too.

Just need to find the whereabouts of Frank Martin in 1901!!!

Suzanne

Hi Suzanne,

I wouldn't take too much notice of him being down as single as he probably wasn't there at the time which would account for him being named as Michael.

A lot of mistakes happen on these census forms as can be seen by the 1911 census which has Frank and Isabella being married for 22 years....
They also had another child who had died do you know anything about that one Suzanne?
