Keep but not a perfectly clear-cut decision. Martin was Chief of Staff of the
Fianna Éireann and probably meets
WP:ANYBIO solely on that basis. He is mentioned in the books and newspaper articles cited in the article (and indeed probably gets a passing mention in every serious book on the Irish Republican movements of the 1912-23 period). That said, he was not the leading figure in the
Irish Republican Brotherhood (instead, he was a committeemember) not did he had a leading role in the
Easter Rising. Also, the article gives the impression of being a vanity piece by or on behalf of his grandson. On balance, though, the sources cited just support keeping the article.

Keep - reasonably well sourced, and a significant enough figure in Irish republicanism to satisfy notability concerns.
