went to library today , got on to the Ancestry site, saw the new stuff, wonderful, but when found marriage bans for Edwin Charles Martyn and Emma Amelia Williams Christ Church 4th Aug 1884 gave me quite a shock as he had his father as a John Martyn Custom house officer, up to this point was sure his father was a Sam Martyn married to a Jane Minards, Sam had died I thought 1853 and Jane remarried a Joseph Lee. Based my thoughts on census returns and information from a Cornish society member.
Assumed I must have it wrong, but then found baptism record for there children done as a group St Mary Lambeth 28th Apr. 1897 and one of the children had as part of name Minard, am very unsure now what to do, could he have given his grandfathers name instead of his fathers (think his name was John) not sure what cirt to send of for to see what is correct.
