Elizabeth MARTIN daughter of Robert MARTIN and his wife Martha McDILL. Born between 1820 and 1844.All her siblings were born in the parish of Down so I am guessing she was too.

According to her brother William's will (1897)she was a Mrs RICHARDSON. But who is Mr RICHARDSON, I have been able to find the marriages of her married siblings except her, on civil records website, some even in the Belfast Newsletter.

Any help would be hugely appreciated, it is really frustrating to not find her.

  • Marchbank,

    Attached are some records that could be Elizabeth Martin. A marriage record showing her married to David Richardson in Warwickshire, England; and her father is Robert Martin. Then two English census records for her...the 1881 record shows that she was born in "Down Co Bally...Downpatrick, Ireland".

    Regards,

  • Oh my goodness Carolyn, that is her. I found them on 1861 census as well and it clearly reads Ballydugan.

    I would buy you a huge coffee if we lived close by.

     

    Thank you ever so much.
