Notes


Henry bought the "Creek Henry Martin Farm" from his father. He and
his wife apparently spent most of their days at this place. They were
Mennonites. They are buried in the Lichty Cemetery, where his father is
buried. Thier graves are marked by simple stones that are carved in
German. They can be easily located in the sixth row from the west fence
in the old section of the yard. ("The John Jacob Martin Family", Daniel
R. Lehman, 1978)
