Hi wonder if you can help, looking for any Martins born in Widnes my great grandmother Bridget Martin lived there, she left quite a few family members when she moved to Kikrham in the 1914s She had a few brothers and sisters mostly worked for the alkali factorys, her mum and dad were born Ireland. any help would be great, I know they lived Grove Street Widnes in 1901 census. and 1 of her brothers was supposed to have stayed there and brought up a family there. thank you Sue
