Looking for possible descendants of Thomas Martin and Mary Jane Lundrigan.

Thomas and Mary Jane were married presumably in Harbour Grace, about Jan 1880 and had four children. The first two were girls who died as infants. Daughter Bertha Martin was born in 1886 and I believe that she was the wife of Walter Sheppard (1885-1931) who died in Montreal in 1931. Walter was a son of William Henry Sheppard and Eliza Jane Coombs of Harbour Grace.

Mr. Walter SHEPPARD, of Hr. Grace, son of the late Wm. Henry Sheppard, passed away at Montreal, Dec. 22nd after a long illness, aged 46 years. Some years ago he prosecuted the fishery at Flat Islands, Labrador. Mr. Sheppard leaves to mourn their loss a wife, formerly Miss Bertha Martin, and five brothers.

Bertha also had a brother John born 1888 in Harbour Grace.

Thanks for any help in this matter.
