I am descended from Charles D. Martin. I have in the Goodspeed bio of Charles D. stating his parents were James and Tabitha (Martin) Martin, her maiden name being Martin before her marriage to James Martin - and Charles D.'s grandparents were given as Isaac and Sarah Martin, parents and grandparents all b NC and all were farmers. The bio states that James and Tabitha Martin went to McMinn, Tennessee when Charles D. was about three (3) years old making it about 1821. I have nothing beyond this and no other documentation.

I found an Isaac Martin b ca 1750 in Burke, NC with children Hannah, Rachel, Jacob and maybe a Moses and William. This Jacob Martin m a Meyers, went to TN, lived and and died there.

I also found an Isaac Martin in the Hamblen Co, TN area with a wife Sarah well before 1820. I THINK this is the Isaac died Lincoln, NC about 1820 but again no proof. Any help at all is greatly appreciated, I will gladly share.

I do have an extensive bio on a Moses MARTIN, Revolutionary War soldier whose descendants went to Missouri. I anyone is interested please email me at mim@wmis.net. This is far to extensive to post.
