You sent a lot of information but you did not show me Hix Martin on the 1840
census. Please READ the subject line.

The 1850 has been on the website for a couple of years and in my personal
files since 1971. (Abstracted from the microfilm of the original).
The material you quoted states that Hix is the son of Thomas.
As you can see there are two Thomas Martin's on the 1840 Forsyth.

Where did I get my page number or household numbers from?
I quoted my book source right under my signature.
I noticed your book source had the same number (819) for the 1850 listing for
Hix.
The 1840 is not the 1850.

"Any questions left? I would be more than willing to copy, photograph and
mail any thing that may prove helpful to you in your own research."

Please understand I am NOT a Martin researcher, I am the webmaster for

I was trying to help answer this email.

It does appear that Jenny Martin Fagg did a lot of work on one of the Martin
families and I will add that source to ones I refer people to.

If you would like to contribute any material to either website, I would be
glad to place it online. It must be original work or permission is needed
from the copyright holder.
If you have published any of your material, I would be glad to reference it
or if you have material online, I would be glad to link it.

Thank you for whatever you wish to share,
