    1. [MARTIN-L] MARTINS OF LOGAN CO. AR 1850 - ?
    2. Dear Martin Searchers: I have been slowly piecing together the members of my Martin family. Please take a quick look at the descendants of Johnson Martin listed below. I am particularly interested in locating any descendents of the children of Johnson listed below who have no 3rd generation listed. On the 1900 census, Mary, wife of Johnson, is listed with comments that 6 of her 12 children were living. ???? I know that Drusilla and Hiram were living and that Johnson Jr. had died. I have not yet been able to locate the remaining 4 living children on the 1900 census records. Mary was living in the household of Drusilla in Logan County, AR in 1900. Any information would be appreciated. Descendants of Johnson Martin: 1 Johnson Martin Abt. 1810 - . +Mary 1821 - Aft. 1900 ........ 2 Mary Martin Abt. 1837 - ........ 2 Sarah Martin Abt. 1839 - ............ +Anderson R.

    3. Hello I am new to the Martin list so I thought I should post my interests. I am researching my Martin Ancestors who lived in Wrockwardine Wood, Donnington Wood and Lilleshall, Shropshire, England I have with certainty been able to go back to my G.G.G. Grandparents who were William and Jemima Martin. They were born in approximately 1829 and 1830 respectively. They lived at 30 Barracks, Lilleshall and had three children that I know of James (b 1853); Elizabeth (b 1855) and William (b 1857). I suspect that William Martin Snr was the son of William and Rebecca Martin, although I have yet to prove this theory beyond reasonable doubt! James Martin was my G.G. Grandfather and he married Sarah Price on the 16th May 1880. Sarah was the daughter of Aaron and Sarah Price, who lived in Donnington Wood. James and Sarah had a son James Albert Martin (b 27th December 1880). James Albert fought in the Boer War and came back in 1902 and moved to Ipswich, where he married Ethel Clara Whitman. If anybody has any interest in the afore mentioned people, or can tell me anything about the history Wrockwardine Wood and Lilleshall I would love to hear from you. Many Thanks Heather Martin

    2. Hello Listers, I am looking for information on or people researching the following line: 1 William C. MARTIN ---------------------------------------- Spouse: Elizabeth RANSDELL Children: Nancy Scott (1827-1894) 1.1 Nancy Scott MARTIN ---------------------------------------- Birth: 5 Jun 1827, Henry County, KY Death: 19 Dec 1894, Gosper County, NE Burial: Arapahoe, NE Boards > Localities > North America > United States > States > Nebraska > Counties > Gosper URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=message&r=rw&p=localities.northam.usa.st ates.nebraska.counties.gosper&m=163 Subject: NANCY S. STEWART Author: M.T. T. Date: 30 Apr 2001 12:00 PM GMT Email: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Lincoln County Leader, Jan. 25, 1895, Toledo, Oregon IN MEMORIAM Mrs. Nancy S. Stewart, departed this life at her home in Gosper County, Nebraska on Wednesday, December 19, 1894, aged 67 years, 6 months and 14 days. Nancy Scott Martin was born in Henry county, Kentucky on June 5th, 1827. While yet in her girlhood, she removed with her family to Indiana and on the 26th day of April 1859 (the date isn't clear, this is my best guess) she was united in marriage to George N. Stewart. To them were born twelve children, seven boys and five girls. Of this family there are still nine living, three of the girls having passed away. The beloved subject of this memoriam continued to enjoy the faithful companionship of her husband until May 28,1878, when death claimed her life's helpmate and she was left alone with her children. With them she continued to reside in Indiana until 1881 when with the greater part of her family she emigrated to Gosper county, Nebraska where she homesteaded a piece of land and on which she made her home until the time of her death. In her early girlhood, she united with the Christian or Campbellite church, but later on severed her relation with that church and united with the Baptist church that she might worship with the same demonination as her husband. Of the latter church, she was a faithful and consistent member for more than twenty-five years. But her conception of the Christian religion did not stop with the carrying of her name on the church record, her life was filled with many kindly deeds of Christian charity, love, forebearance and fortitude, the memory which will be a shining light for many feet that follow after her. A loving and faithful wife, she could be nothing else than a loving and patient mother. In her family, her life seemed central. Her chiefest aim was the welfare of her children, and the griefs and trials born uncomplaingly, the sore sacrifices made cheerfully and the silently uttered prayers for the welfare of her children which she has made may never be known only by Him who knoweth all things and by whom the fall of even a sparrow is noted. That she was a loving and true parent, the writer of these weak lines to her blessed memory can attest. About two years ago, feeling the weakness of age coming upon her, she quit housekeeping and lived from that time to her death with her children who lived near and with her. In the winter of 1892-93, she was attacked with the lagrippe, which was then prevalent in that country. She apparently recovered but the insidious disease had undermined a hitherto strong constitution, and during the present winter she began to fail rapidly, the disease taking the form of the dropsy of the heart. On Sunday, December 16, she began to get rapidly worse and word was telegraphed to her children, but owing to distance some of them did not get to her bedside in time to see her again alive. She passed peacefully away to her better home on Wednesday, and on Sunday, December 22nd, she was laid to rest in the beautiful little cemetery at Arapahoe, Nebraska. In her death the community have lost a good Christian woman and the family have lost that dearest friend on earth, a "kind and loving mother". In trying to find words that will tell of her many loving traits and kindess, we realize how weak are words and yet there is one word that will ever be clustered around with all love and veneration and which in our recent loss we find a new meaning. To her whom we loved and who loved and lived for us, we will give that name which now is nearer and dearer than ever--she was our mother. J. F. S.

    3. Jan Sorry I accidentally hit reply. I don't really know where my Martins are from other than Illinois to Missouri. James has been my brick wall. I knew nothing at all except his name and that he lived in Illinois. A recent discussion with my aunt Alice revealed his military background and I thought it maybe a way to locate him. I do know a little about Sylvester Martin born March 5 1854 Bruce Illinois. In the 1880 census I found him working as a farm hand for the Thompson Family in Moultrie Co. Mo. In 1888 he married Alice Baker in Cumberland Co. Sylvester and Alice had 6 children Oretta , Gertrude ,Jack Leo, Tracy, Charles and Evan. They lived most of the time in Southern Mo. Alice inherited a sizable amount of land from her father Evan Baker in Neoga Illinois but Sylvester was a gambler and lost it all . He work as a Mull Skinner in Winona Mo. I never heard he was a twin but I really don't know much and the year fits . Is this the same James Scott Martin from Moultrie Co? I thought I read of a James Scott in that group of Martins. Thanks for the information Michelle PS check out this site http://www.edenmartin.com/family/part1.htm

    2. My gggrandfather was James Martin. After his first wife, Emeila Terry, died, he remarried Lurany Heron. My database shows James and Lurany had four children -- Charles, Mary, Sylvester, Emily. Sylvester and Emily (twins) were born in 1854. James Martin and Lurany separated and perhaps divorced. James moved to Nebraska with his son, Miles, from his marriage to Emeila. They ultimately settled in Farnam where he and Miles are buried. The parents of James Martin were James Scott Martin and Mary Virginia Feagley who moved from Logan County, KY to IL. I have information about this family if you want it.

    3. I recently found out at least it is a family story that James Martin fought at Pilot Knob under Grant . I check the roster for that company and there was a James Martin in the 21st Inf. Company B . He enlisted June 15 1861, in Neoga Illinois as a corporal. He was later promoted to Lieutenant. I hope this is the same James Martin, who is the father of Sylvester. Does anyone know anything about this family? Many thank Michelle
