Sorry that I did not make myself clear...our last name is Moses....not Martin. He has tested--but for his Moses surname.

It must have been in the early 1800's. The following is a quote from the "History of Vanderburgh County" "It is impossible to name the pioneers in the priority of their coming. Among the earliest were James Martin and his two sons, Thomas and Charles, who came from South Carolina in a very early day, and afterward became well-known in all parts of the County. The elder Martin was a Regular Baptist preacher of the early backwoods style, uneducated; and yet with homely illustrations and powerful speech, backed by an upright life which all men admired, he was a power for good among the pioneers. Charles Martin was a progressive man, and a good farmer for those days. He was one of the first to build a horse-power mill in the Township, which served in a great degree to ameliorate the hardships of life in the woods. On the 8th of November, 1819, he was licensed to keep a tavern, the first in Armstrong Township. For many years his hospitable house was a favorite place with all who went that way. The rates fixed by the County commissioners as permissible to be charged by him, were as f! ollows: Each diet, 37 1/2 cents; keeping horse, 50 cents; lodging, 12 1/2 cents; one-half pint of rum, brandy or wine, 50 cents; one-half pint of gin, peach, or apple brandy or bounce, 25 cents; one-half pint of whiskey, 12 1/2 cents.

Hang in there, Karen...you will find someone... BTW - German Baptist Brethren(sometimes called Dunkers) and Mennonites are anabaptist in doctrine, as well as present day Baptists, Pentecostals, Church of Christ, and all others who reject infant Baptism. My ggggg-grandfather John Martin just seems to appear in the area of Old Effingham County, GA before the Revolutionary War...He is noted in Deed records as a Minister of the Gospel, and ca1900, his g-grandson A.G. Martin recorded that he was a member of the Dunker denomination. He received multiple Land Grants before and after the Revolution, some of which are speculated to be Bounty for Military Service. Grand-father John died in 1809 in Bulloch County. His only documented wife was named Elizabeth, and I believe that she died before 1808. It is accepted that he had five children: James(b1756); Elijah; Rachel; Mary; and my gggg-grandmother Mercy, who was born in 1771. They were closely allied with the Swiss-Germanic Gyger/Gieger/Geiger/Giger/Gigger family who arrived in Charleston, SC on 1 Feb 1737. If you can relate to any of these, Please...
