Welcome researchers! Welcome family! This site is a collection of genealogical information of my Martin ancestors, from many sources collected over many years . Some of the information comes from my own work searching databases, www, microfilm, books, and the like. Other information has been graciously passed to me from fellow family researchers and members. If you are a researcher, my hope is that here you will find a lead. If you descend from names recorded here, contact me. I am Victoria Taylor-True - Daughter of Mary Jane GARDNER and Keith Bremmen TAYLOR. My direct lines are here. More sights are linked up often, so check back *S*

Yeah that is a picture of me in 1983 in olden days attire. I know I was born in the wrong generation. I do so love the times of yesteryear. My mother says I look like my great-aunts when they were young, so as we find and locate pictures, I guess we will find out just how much I do.

This page will be a constant work in progress, as I meet new cousins, and add new photos and information. If you feel you are connected to our family, please contact us. We would love to hear from you and add "new Branches" to the tree. If you contact us and provide information, please let us know how you would like to be cited. We are forever grateful, for all cousins help! There are missing pictures and information. If you have any thing that would add to this collection and help fill in the missing spots please email me or contact me for a family sheet and I will mail you one to fill out.

This is a set of genealogical records with both ancestry and decadency sets of data based on my family. Nothing is set in stone and all things in genealogy have to be vailidated to be true. So at this point , this genealogist is data collecting and processing validation as it become founded or shared. All validation will show in the family group it belongs as well as photos and documents. If you have anything for any group, please let me know , so I can include a copy of it with the ancestor it belongs with.

        --- Sarah Arnold Martin filed a widow's pension for her husband's service in the War of 1812. It states that Giles was drafted at Patrick County in February 1815 and served three months and 17 days. He was honorably discharged at Richmond on 19 Feb 1815. Apparently Giles was granted 40 acres of land 10 Feb 1854 which was disposed of before Sarah made application for pension.
        --- Giles Martin first appears on the Patrick Co. VA personal property tax records in 1793. A well respected Martin researcher has tracked the tax records each year through 1837, showing Giles on the records each year, except 1829, 1832 and 1834. As she has pointed out a person needed to be 21 to appear on the tax rolls. As William Martin appears next to Giles 1791-1803, it would appear he is Giles father, and when Giles came of age in 1793, he first appears on the rolls indicating he would have been born about 1772
        --- Feb 16 1803 Court Patrick Co, VA Deed bk 2, pg 186: John Ingram Sr leaves to his "daughter Anne Martin & Giles Martin her Husband" land on the Smith River "one hundred acres be the same more or less, including the plantation where on the said Giles Martin now lives." .
