Parent-Proof notes for Marcia Baker
She is present on find-a-grave linked to Martin as her husband.
Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Martin (Spouse 1)
The fact that he was first listed in Census was 1850 in Wayne Township where others of Jacob’s family were living and his age leads me to believe he was Jacob’s son. The fact that his middle initial was “K” (I would guess for Karcher) adds evidence I think. Martin is designated N1c2.
Relocated and Census Tracking notes for Martin (Spouse 1)
He was born in New York State (as he said on the 1850 Census) and no doubt came with the rest of his family to Erie County in the 1830’s. He was first listed on his own in the 1850 Census with wife Marsha. They were both there also in 1860-1880.
Death and Find-a-Grave notes for Martin (Spouse 1)
A Martin K Mertz is on find-a-grave in Erie County with no dates and no tombstone photo. His wife Marcia Baker is there too and her life span was 1822-1903. The two children linked to them were born in 1853 and 1856.
