Hi A few pages of Saltsman info was given to me years ago (can't remember by who) had descent of Martin SALTSMAN from William SALTSMAN (arriving Philadelphia, PA 1751) - My husband's lines connect to the SALTSMAN line thru CULPS, & MAPLES. If I can help let me know. Helen Weals If anyone has access to "History of the Upper Ohio Valley," Brant and Fuller. Would you please see if any or all of the quotes below came from that book? They were given to me together and cited as "History of Upper Ohio Valley" but I'd like to verify it. It seems like one contradicts the other as to the number of Martin's children. I'd like the page number, too, please. "Martin Saltsman, son of Philip and Betsey, who came from Germany to Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania, had 5 sons and 3 daughters." "Martin Saltsman, came to Jefferson Co., Ohio at an early time when the country was full of Indians and was compelled to re-cross the river on account of their hostilities. He married Jane Farquar in 1813, of Irish descent; and had 12 children." Thanks, Janice ==== OHJEFFER Mailing List ==== This list is archived.
