Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for William Martz (G1a2b)
I have concluded that William was the son of William based on where he lived and where he was buried. It is confirmed by the 1871 land deed. He is designated G1a2b.
Relocated and Census Tracking notes for William Martz (G1a2b)
William was listed in the 1840 to 1880 Census, always in Salem Township, where his presumed father William also had lived.
Death and Find-a-Grave notes for William Martz (G1a2b)
William and his wife are on find-a-grave.
Known Sons notes for William Martz (G1a2b)
From Census, William had several sons, but only Benjamin was born before 1850 and I think he died young.
Parent-Proof notes for Julia Ann (Spouse 1)
Her name is spelled Rhoades, Rhoads and Rhodes on the death certificates of her children Margaret B Fink, William Wilson Martz, and Lebbeus Martz respectively so I think the best representation of the spelling Julia might have used is Rhodes.
