    3. My earliest ancestor is William M. Martin b. 1826 NC, married in 1848 to Mary M. Young in Rockingham Co NC. The 1850 census shows them in Rockingham Co NC. About 1853 they moved to Henderson Co TN and stayed there until William M. Martin died there in 1870. About 1878 the widow Mary M. Martin b. 1825 NC, and her children moved permanently to Navarro Co TX. Mary M. Young b. 1825 NC was sister of B. J. Young who married Druzilla. B.J. Young and his wife Druzilla also moved from NC to Henderson Co TN, and are buried in the CAFFEY Cemetery there. I have noticed that in Rockingham Co NC that there is a marriage record between Andrew Martin and a Margaret CAFFEY. Is the CAFFEY Cemetry in TN connected to the Caffey family of NC? If so, does this tie to my Martin family line? Another similar question: in the community of Riedsville, Rockingham Co NC there is a Bailey Martin, who married Isabell Herron 1-12-1818, and also Sarah Corum 12-24-1824. My own ancestor William M. Martin b. 1826 NC named one of his sons BAILEY Martin. What does this mean?? William also named one of his daughters Isabell Martin. If anyone is researching any of these names please let me know. Best regards, Lilly Martin, d/o Joe b. OK, s/o Joe b. TX, s/o Joe b. TN, s/o William M. Martin b. 1826 NC.
