My brick wall is Nathan Martin. He was born in KY in 1801 according to Texas County, Missouri census records for 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880. What leads me to Barren county is a marriage bond that was found in the book Marriage Records of Barren County KY 1799-1849 By Martha Powell Reneau 1984 page 170 Martin, Nathan to Ann Maginnis, March 11, 1827, Sur; James Martin. Md. March 15, 1827 by John H Baker I can't prove this is "my" Nathan, but the birthdates of his children who all came to Missouri with him seem to fall into place with this His children were: Margaret Jane b 1829 William J. b. 1831 (my 3GGrandfather) Phebe b. 1833 Lewis b. abt 1835 Susan b. 1838 Another researcher told me he once found a grave of an Ann Martin and a James Martin in the same cemetery and that Ann's death date wasn't long after the birth year of Susan. He thought it might have been Foster Cemetery in Warren County. I would like to be able to prove this is the right marriage and then from there discover Nathan's parentage and their origins. I would also love to find the cemetery in which these Martin graves are located. Elaine O' Hollister, MO
