General Notes: Husband - Barnhart Martin

---

He settled on a farm in Clarion County, PA, about 1802, and cleared and improved it, and died there at the age of eighty years. He is said to be the first settler in the limits of what is now Ashland township.

He settled on the Martin farm in 1807. He was born in Germany, near the Rhine, but was educated in France. He was a man of letters, and esteemed very highly by all the old settlers. He was their counselor in all affairs, and was the first justice of the peace, holding that office till his death. [HCC 1887, 437]

When a young man he came to America, with a brother and sister. He settled in Ashland township, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, mar­ried there, and bought a tract of wild land, which he cleared and improved. He was a Democrat in politics, stood high in the regard of his townsmen, who elected him justice of the peace, an office he held many years. He was a Lutheran in religion. [GPHAV, 556]
