Billie, I am interested in your book on the Martin family. Do you have a John R. Martin who married Catherine Williams in your book? Both were born in Bedford County, Virginia. John was born in 1799. They moved to Montgomery County about 1838 Here are the children born to this couple according to Ancestry.com Jan2001: Thomas M Martin Sarah Martin Mary Martin Ardenia Martin Elijah Martin William Martin James Martin Jane Martin Catherine Martin Elizabeth Martin Nancy A Martin Andrew Jackson Martin I believe these children were born between 1818 and 1839. I would be interested in your book if my people are part of your lines.
