Early life

Martin was born in Moneymore, County Londonderry, Ireland on 11 November 1822. His family travelled to New Zealand on Lady Nugent, eventually landing at Port Nicholson, on 17 March 1841.[1]

Political career

Martin was made a justice of the peace by William Fitzherbert in 1876, and in 1878 was called to the New Zealand Legislative Council by Premier George Grey.[1]

He was to be a member of the Legislative Council from 25 July 1878 to 17 May 1892, when he died.[2] During his 14-year career in the Legislative Council, he only spoke four times, and came to be known as the "silent member".[1]
