I have been reading your Martin posts with interest. My line of Martins is this: Sparks Martin my gg grandpa m Sarah Guilliams James H. Martin g grandpa m. Sarah Jane Stoots my g grandma Mary Margaret Martin my grandma m. John Leander Harris m. Harold Crabtree, my grandpa. My father claimed to have been born in Pocahontas, VA but I have his school report for 1917/18 from Mercer County. I think he was born on a mountain near Bramwell and it was closer for him to attend school in Mercer County. Sometime between 1860 and 1900 they all moved from Smyth and Russell Counties, VA to Brush Fork and surrounding areas in and around Mercer County. At one time they lived in McDowell County, WV near Bishop. This part of their life is really fuzzy. I do know that the Crabtree, Harris, Martin, Justice and related families have been a close clan, migrating together and cross married several times throughout the years. Sarah Jane's second husband was P. M. Driver They lived in Iaeger, living there in the early 1920s and 30s. Sarah Jane also had a son, Leonard Martin that lived in Iaeger. I have very little imformation on any of these people although I do have some photos. I would appreciate any information that you Martins may have.
