General Notes: Husband - Francis Martin


The founder of the family in America, he was born in Scotland and came to the United States in 1800, settling in Wayne township, Armstrong County, PA, where he not only carried on his trade of weaving, but operated a farm, which he first had to clear.

He was a native of Ireland and was twice married, both his wives dying there. In 1800 he and his sons John and Stephen came to America, locating in Philadelphia. [HAC 1914, 827]
