Pa Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Venango?read=2198 Surname: ------------------------- Does anybody know anything about the families of James Martin, listed in the 1810 census in Frenchcreek Township (along with two other James Martins), or of John Martin, of Franklin in 1810? I'm trying to determine whether my ancestor James Martin (c.1786-1852), a native of Ireland who lived in Pennsylvania in 1809 or 1810 and who settled in Harrison County, Ohio, about 1820, was the same as the James Martin, Jr., in the 1810 census in Frenchcreek Twp., Venango Co. He seems to have had a brother Andrew, who in 1829 had a wife Margaret. The "pre-1812" list on this site says that James and John Martin came from Maryland, but this could be a mistake. In 1820, James Martin was listed in between Thomas and William Lyons, who lived from about 1801 to 1808 in Venango County. Paul Gifford
