Hi William

Presumably Martin knew his father? Did his father have any siblings (your cousins)?
When (year) and where was Bernard born? That's so that we can look for possibly relevant marriages and the birth of *their* children

Obviously, the easiest thing you can do is to search all members trees with the names a you already have. If there is a match, send a message to the tree owner asking if Martin and Bernard could be close relatives

You say 'was' in reference to Bernard.

When did he die?

William i assume you have spotted the Martin Wild with Bernard Wild in his tree on here by using 'search trees' ?

If that's the case you need to click on the 'find out more' next to his name and send him a message.
