General Notes: Husband - Alfred Martin


He was a native of Maine. He came as far west as Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1821, and in 1856 settled in North Beaver Township, Lawrence County.

He was born in the state of Maine and when a young man moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He located on an island below the city and was there engaged in truck gardening for some time. He next moved to Mahoning Township, then in Beaver, now Lawrence County, and farmed there some years. About 1854 he moved to North Beaver Township, purchasing the farm later owned by Thomas Norwood, near Westfield Church, and lived there until 1864, when he sold out to John Norwood. He then purchased 180 acres in North Beaver Township, and resided there until his death.
