There are a few people with that name. What other information do you have on him please. For example, when is the last you see of him in records?

To help us try to find the right man - where in Cornwall was he born, who were his parents, did he marry and who to; if any- what were his children's names and birth years? The more information you can give us, the more chance we have to find him.

Did he die in New Zealand then?

Unable to find a death for Martin in New Zealand.

There are gaps in the NZ records. He may well have died there, the registers could be lost. I am missing several NZ records. I know for example that a certain court-house burnt down in the early 1900s, and as a result my father-in-law could never prove his birth date.
