Johann Merten (b 24 May 1691, Muesen, Nassau, Siegen, Germany; d 1758, Germantown, Fauquier, VA) changed his name to MARTIN. >From the information in the Rudasill Family Tree, I can follow this Martin family from Virginia to Georgia: Henry Martin, b 1720 Germantown, Culpepper, VA; d 1780 Fauquier, VA Reuben Martin, b 1745, Virginia; d 5 Oct 1819, South Carolina Does anyone know if Reuben had more than Stephen G Martin as a son? I ask because I have an ancestorr, William Alfred Martin (b 1847, NC). Does this name ring a bell with anyone? Most importantly, do you have suggestions of where I may look for him and his ancestors? Thanks, Cynthia Mother: King-O'Neal-Martin-Terry
