Seeking ancestors and relatives of Jacob Martin

 During the late 1950s  - April 1966 this researcher was aware of two enormously fat melanin dominant males were employed as cooks at the Colonial Hospital in New Amsterdam.

Fat James and another perhaps equally overweight male were a sight to behold mounted on their bicycles. Perhaps fat James resided at Pitt Street or Asylum or the street with Mission Chapel. It is tough to roll back the years accurately.

This researcher needs to understand whether he shares ancestral lineages with John Rollins, Fat James, the other cook and barber Austin. Love to link up with Holly Rollins. I last shared space and time with her  perhaps more than a decade ago on on New Lots Avenue in 11208.  How about Rozario, David Reddock and his sister Eunice who were resident at Alexander Street? 

This researcher needs to be enlightened.  

  • Who are our MRCA?   
  • Who do you recommend this researcher consult?

Are you willing for us to explore and exhaust every avenue to ascertain the recent and prior common ancestors? 

I am convinced  my paternal grandfather, Jacob Stanley Martin, is somehow our common relative.  Are you familiar with your Martin relatives? If you are - what are their names and/or surnames? I am expecting 

Abraham, Anderson, Cummings, Dodson, Francis, Hamilton, James, Mann, Mitchell, Reddock, Sills, Small, Smith, Wade, and Woodruffe, to be among the relatives of Jacob Stanley Martin. 


Are you aware of our Martin relatives in West Demerara, Essequebo and Barbados?

Let's do genealogy networking.

  • Samuel James,
  • Jeliza Casandy James
  •  Grace Helen Martin Williams, 
  • Milton Martin
  • Joy Martin
  • Roses Martin
  • Sonia Martin
  • Shelly Martin
  • Yolanda Martin

What are the names and/or surnames of your parents, grandparents and great-grand-parents and great-great-grand-parents? What are the names of the rural and other communities in which your ancestors and other relatives reside? 

I am particularly interested in the names of the ancestral villages as per the ancestors. This researcher needs to ascertain who our common ancestors and other relatives are.

M'Lilwana Osanku is soliciting information respecting the immediate relatives of  Marion 'Sissy' Martin. this information exhibit Marion 'Sissy' Martin resided at Pouderoyen. She has a son named Simeon King. He was birthed in 1898. Perhaps,  Marion 'Sissy' Martin and her King relatives and other relatives are DNA relatives of M'Lilwana Osanku, other Martin people linked to Hopetown, New Amsterdam, West Demerara and elsewhere in Guyana but also to Martin and Braithwaite and other groups in Barbados. .
