| Little is known about William Wylia Martin, other than he was a slave on George T. Robert, James, and Richard Martin's Plantation. At an early age, William Wylia Martin and Henry Martin was sold to another plantation. Henry and his sister Judith were sold to James Martin at the age of six years old for 187 lbs. Hulda worked as a servant in the kitchen at the plantation. Nothing is known about Henry's sisters or brothers except that they stayed on the Pulliam estate with their mother, Hulda. All of this happened in the Caswell County Area in North Carolina. This area was the "Old Orange County." Marriages and migration have now carried the name and kin to every part of the country; from California to New York; from Michigan to Florida. |
| The Martin Family, strong-willed family that came up through all trials, tribulations and conflicts. Our kin-folk (some sold from Africa and Virginia) who migrated with their masters or on their own, have made their impressions on our nations. They are in many fields of endeavor: the pulpit, education, federal-local governement, sports, armed forces, the military, civil services, business, medicine, farming, technology and many others. What we know just covers a small branch line that descended from William Wylia Martin (unknown) and Hulda Richmond Martin (8/4/1844 - 9/3/1914). The information we have gathered are about Henry Martin and his two wives Creasy and Lottie Corbett Martin which are the second generation. |
