I just found out that my great grandfather name was Kit Martin. I found that out when I sent off to the Secretary of State vital records for Lousiana records fifty years or older. Kit is in the 1900 census living in Frankliton,Washington Lousiana parish. His birth is mention as 1835 also it say's he is from Virginia.I'm at a stand still because Marie Benjamin who was on that death certificate is not on that census,but my grandmother Sarah Martin and someothers are on there. My question is where to go next to find out more about the Martin's from Virginia?
