Find Ancestors

James was born 2 February 1894 in Southwark, Westminster of Arthur Cecil Martin (1867-1932) and Elizabeth Marshall (1871-1899).
I have tried my hardest and can find nothing on him since the 1901 Census when he was staying with his Aunt, Mrs Rowena Dinger (nee Marshall).

Can anyone help please?

He was my grandfathers son by his first wife!

Rondog,
You may want to add (possibly Canada) to your heading so our Canadian cousins can take a look just in case the above does relate to him.

Did he have siblings? There were 5 other Martin children on that ship:

Rosa 15
Mary 14
George 11
Alice 10

This is a link to the Canadian 1911 census image which may well be him.

He was born Feb 1894, though it has him down as Irish?

Do you think his parents might have been Irish?

Thanks again.
