Family
Although there are suggestions that this "Martini" is the son of the former Geelong footballer, Percy Martini,2 the fact that Percy Martini's wife, May Victoria Martini (1887–1928), née Machar, died some two years before Ray Martini's birth, and that there's no record of Percy Martini ever remarrying (or, in contrast, being the father of an extra-marital child) seems to indicate that there's no substance to these claims.
Football
Williamstown (VFA)
He played with Williamstown for two seasons: 1954 and 195534 totalling 10 senior games and kicking 6 goals.
