Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Charles (Spouse 1)
Charles is named as a son of Peter by descendants of this family. His age and presence in Hamilton, County make this totally logical. He is designated P5e2.
Relocated and Census Tracking notes for Charles (Spouse 1)
By tracking his son Andrew J, I was able to track Charles to Iowa.
Death and Find-a-Grave notes for Charles (Spouse 1)
I cannot find Charles on find-a-grave. There is no Charles Marts with the right dates listed anywhere. As he was listed in the 1860 Census in Iowa and his family was there without him in 1870, I assume he died sometime in the 1860’s in Iowa.
