<p>Another possibility for finding your ancestor with a common name - submit an article to the local paper. I did so with the Dromore Leader. Unfortunately, I didn't hear from anyone in my current family circle in the Dromore area, but you may have better success.</p>

<p>Thanks so much, Claire! I'm fairly certain my Martin ancestors are not part of the Martyn tribe, but came over from England. However, DNA ethnicity reports claim I am 10% Irish, so I may be wrong and Adrian may indeed be helpful. Unfortunately, I cannot find his page on Facebook and do not subscribe to LinkedIn. Would you please contact him for me? all the best</p>

<p>I know a man from Galway named Adrian Martyn, who is an historian on all things Martyn! His branch is one of the Seven Tribes of Galway, but I think he'd be a good one to ask! He has published a couple of books on the Martyns, and I'm sure he knows about the origin of the different spelling of the surname as well. You can find him on Facebook and on LinkedIn and simply drop him a line, or send him a link to your post! Let me know if you have difficulty contacting Adrian. I'll contact him…</p>

<p>Thanks for your appreciation of my challenge and how I've tackled it so far. At the very least, and thankfully, I've learned a lot about Down (and all of Ireland) history over the years. I will persevere and when I finally find the answers, you'll be hearing me exclaiming all the way across the pond :) Thanks to TWG for helping me along the way and all you do for others too.</p>
