Dear Elizabeth: Thank you for your response and the information you provided. It appears we do NOT have a fit, as my John Martin married Mariah Garland, in Corbeg, at the Tyholland Parish Church, in 1868. Where is Ballyblogh, in Monaghan, relative to Monaghan Town?

Hi Patty, I will give you my MARTIN family as it stands at the moment; I really do not know whether our MARTIN's are the same family or not. William MARTIN was my gt.gt.grandfather and he was a farmer at Ballyblogh, Co. Monaghan, Ireland. the family later moved to Rooskey, Newbliss, Co. Monaghan. I do not have the name of his wife or siblings at this time but he would have been born around 1810 cc and had a son John MARTIN (b. 1840) at Ballyblogh, Co. Monaghan. John married Matilda Jane SCHOLES from Killyfuddy, Co. Monaghan in 1866 at Newbliss Presbyterian Church, Co. Monaghan. John and Matilda (Tillie) had a son John James MARTIN who married Margaret Jane (Meta) LEE and they were my maternal grandparents. What do you think!!! Kind regards, Elizabeth Gresty, W. Australia

Looking for John b. 1859, James b. 1873 and Michael Dominic or Dominic Michael b. 1866... of Ballynabucky. Michael lived in the Boston area and I think John lived in Beacon NY, James might have lived in Walden area NY. John married Helen (?) had two children John and Ann. Ann m. Roy Gillrand. James m. Margaret (?) their children Nellie b. 1898, James, Grace, Margaret, Katherine, and John b. 1905. Sure hope someone can identify with these elusive great-uncles of mine. M. A. Anderson

Hi Jim, Thank you for your prompt response to my listing re the above. Families did tend to name their offspring after the older members of the family and so the same Christian names appear continually through the generations. I have recently gotten in touch with some younger cousins who still live in County Monaghan and when they say that two of the Martin men emigrated to America, they are not specific as to region etc. I will outline my connection as I know of it so far and I believe there is a double connection in the family so it will take a little sorting out. My gtgrandfather was John MARTIN (b. 1840 at Ballyblogh, Co. Monaghan, Ireland) who married (on 01/06/1866 in Newbliss Presbyterian Church), Matilda Jane (Tillie) SCHOLES (b. 1839 at Killyfuddy, Co. Monaghan, Ireland). John and Matilda had 6 children that I know of: Margaret Jane, Elizabeth Ann (Lizzie), Un-named (probably still-born), William, Martha and John James (my grandfather). John MARTIN (b. 1840 at Ballyblogh) was the son of William MARTIN (farmer). The family moved to Rooskey, Newbliss, Co. Monaghan later. I do not, at this stage, know anything about William's wife or siblings. Descendants of William MARTIN still live at Rooskey, Newbliss, Co. Monaghan, Ireland. William MARTIN also had a daughter Margaret (b. 1842 cc at Rooskey, Newbliss, Co. Monaghan). Margaret married a James HALL (farmer from Edengoash, Co. Monaghan) on 11.03.1864 at the Church of Ireland, Killeevan, Co. Monaghan. Their daughter Sarah (b. 1867 at Edengoash) married John LEE of Gortgranard, Annalore, Clones, Co. Monaghan on 03.12.1889. John and Sarah LEE had a daughter Margaret Jane (Meta) LEE (b. 17.11.1890) who married John James MARTIN (b. 05.12.1880 at Rooskey, Newbliss, Co. Monaghan, Ireland.) John James and Meta MARTIN are my maternal grandparents. I am sure you will find this all terribly confusing but I will contact my cousins and put your MARTIN information to them and see what they come up with. Will keep in touch and thank you again for your contact - this is the only way we can all get to the information we need. I live about 120 klms. from Perth, Western Australia and have been here for 30 years, having emigrated from Northern Ireland. Kind regards, ElizabethGresty, Australia.

Hi Listers, I have just joined the list and I would like to submit an inquiry about Abraham MARTIN. Our records are rather vague however we think that he was born some where in Scotland in 1589. His father, also Abraham, was born in Scotland and possibly died in France. Abraham jr married Marguerite LANGOIS in France abt 1620. That same year they came to Nouveau France (Quebec) where he was a "Pilot of the King" on the St Lawrence. Later he was granted land on which the famous Battle of the Plains of Abraham was fought. They had at least 9 children. Incidentally one of the witnesses of the christening of their 3rd child was Samuel de CHAMPLAIN! If anyone has any further information, especially where in Scotland Abraham was born, we would love to hear from you. Cheers, Ted LANNING, West Vancouver B.C. CAN

Hi Lisers, I have two MARTIN brothers (born 1840 cc at Ballyblogh, Co. Monaghan, Ireland) who emigrated to America, probably between 1860-1880. Unfortunately, at this stage, I do not know their Christian names but their father was a William MARTIN, farmer of County Monaghan, Ireland and they had a brother John. I would like to make contact with their descendants in America and would appreciate any information regarding their movements after leaving Ireland. Elizabeth Gresty, Australia

Dear Elizabeth: My name is Jim White, from Naples, Florida. I am currently researching my family, where my mother's father and his family were Martin's from Monaghan. All the names you mention are common in all generations of my Martin family. My great grandfather was a John Martin and he had a brother William, as well as sons John and William. I suspect previous generations also had these names. However, my Martins emigrated to Toronto in 1891. His brothers emigrated sometime later. I'm not aware of his uncles at this time or when they emigrated to Toronto. John was born in 1840, but at this time I'm not sure where. I am currently researching this point. Perhaps it was Ballyblogh, I will research this possibility. William was born cir 1842. Their parents were James Martin and Jane Wallace. Do you think we have a connection? The other siblings were: Sarah-1844; Edith-1847; James-1854; Robert-1858; Elizabeth-1862; Thomas-1864; and Feregus-1868. Do you have any other information on this family? I have extensive information that I would be pleased to share. Regards, Jim White PS: Where are you located in Australia? If we do not have a connection, I can provide you the email address of an expert genealogist, in Monaghan, who has virtually every record available, in Monaghan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "bernard gresty" <berliz@bigpond.com> To: <MARTIN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 02, 2002 4:49 AM Subject: [MARTIN-L] MARTIN bros.

BILLY JOE MARTIN is my Grandfather. He was a logman for the Lone Star Petroleum Co. in Wichita Falls, TX. He was there at the first oil boom of 1920. I believe he was born about 1900. My father Billy Joe Martin, Jr. was born June, 28. 1925 in Duncan, OK. He did not grow up with his father and only saw him once in 1940 at the oil office in Wichita Falls, TX. If any one knows North Texas Martins, I would appreciate any information. Thanking you kindly, Lillian Kathleen Martin.

William B. Martin was born abt. 1801 in Virginia. Ulysses Lewis Martin was born in Russell County, Alabama in 1839. Ulysses was married to Sophronia Kendrick. Their children were Bettie, Nellie, Lissie, and James Martin. Nellie and Bettie lived in SE Alabama. I heard that Lissie went to New York. I don't know about James Martin.

Hi What years were your Martins ? We really don't have lots of info, just searching. Our Sophronie(Froney) had sons Robert and John 1870-1875 Thanks Alice
