Jim,
I could be mistaken, but I could have sworn that you sent me a private email with some additional information, but I just can't find it now - and I save everything!
Do you recall if you did, and if so, would you be able to resend?
Also, in your last posting here, you mentioned you'd be getting a copy of the will at the FHC.Would love to know what it says - especially looking for clues that might point to my Martins.
There appear to be only two Martin families that were known to be in GA during the late 1700s and early 1800s that have strong similarities to my family.One of them is yours, and the other is that of Abraham Martin who came from SC and was in Gwinnett Co., GA at the right time, had kids with similar names, and their kids also had names that were almost identical to those had by my Martins in the same generation level.
Your line fits most closely with our Oral family history, but have nothing to prove it yet - and am at a loss on how to find anything.
There just weren't that many Allen's around in those days - especially Allen Martin - so figure they must be related somehow.
Anyway, would love a copy or transcription of that will if you can provide it.And if you recall sending me private email, please resend if possible.My apologies for losing it if you did.
Thanks again, Jim.
