Hi
John Sinden Martin
Born:  15 March 1854 Adelaide South Australia Australia
Source:  Family Bible  and SABDM Indices Book 4 Page 302
Third children of John Martin and Hannah Potter.

Have not been able to locate a death for him or any other information.
There is a John Martin that died in SA in 1855 and most family trees have this as date of death.
Have a letter written by John (father) to Hannah (mother) in 1858 mentioning little John, so I am not convinced the John Martin that died in 1855 is John Sinden Martin.
Where have I looked
SABDM Indices (available paper, online and CD), searched by name, year of birth and parents.
NSW BDM online as there has been some "family lore" that he may have been in Broken Hill around the 'turn of the century"
Also checked Broken Hill Cemetery records
Have searched "Trove" however being such a common name is difficult.  https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/.
I sited Hannah's estate at SA Archives and there was no mention of John S Martin.
Searched  https://sailis.lssa.com.au/home/auth/login historical property and found property owned by siblings however nothing that would clearly identify him,  
Google search hasn't revealed any results to date.
If I could break down this brick wall would be very grateful.
Thank you
