Name: Jonathan MARTIN
Sex: M
Birth: 1767 in Virginia 1
Death: Bef 2 AUG 1852 in Gillsville,Hall Co.,Ga.
Burial: Possibly Timberidge Baptist Church Cemetery
Event: Migration Halifax Co,Va. to Jackson Co,Ga. (c 1800 - 1803)
Probate: 1753 Hall Co. GA,Ga.
Event: Land Deed 1 OCT 1815 Grantor,Halifax Co.,Va. (Filed Jackson Co. Ga.)
_APPLIES_TO: DATE 2
Note:
According to the 1788 Southern Halifax Property Tax list, Jonathan is already at least 21 years old, assuming he had no older brothers. It would make his birth year at least 1767. The only source for his birth in 1769 was the 1850 Hall Co., GA, census, which was not always accurate. The date in the bible of Jonathan's son, John Martin, is considered to be a later entry based on the census record. No other sources are known.
Jonathan Martin was listed in the 1804 Qualified Voters list for Halifax Co., VA, and was not listed in Jackson Co., GA, tax indices for 1799, 1801, and 1804. Family history has it that Jonathan moved to Georgia around 1800, but it is possible he did not move to Jackson until later than first assumed. The early date appears to be based on a misreading of the book, "Gone To Georgia," where family members assumed it was detailing the census of 1800. The census detailed in the book was the 1820 census. There was no 1800 Hall County census.

In 1820, Jonathan lived five houses down from Samuel Martin (who possibly had a daughter Sarah, who married Alexander). In 1815, Samuel witnessed Jonathan's deed of Halifax land to Benjamin True.
