Parent-Proof notes for Elizabeth B Riggle
I know her maiden name from he find-a-grave memorial.
Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Benjamin Franklin (Spouse 1)
We know Benjamin, B F, or Frank B as a son of Michael Martz from his presence in Michael’s household in 1860 and 1870. Since he was born in 1851, I normally would not track him further but in his case: all his brothers are tracked, he did meet one of my criteria which is that he was head of household by 1880 — and — I have heard from a descendant of his. He is designated S6d5.
Relocated and Census Tracking notes for Benjamin Franklin (Spouse 1)
Frank B Marts first was named as head of household in Census in 1880 in Cairo, Allen Co, Ohio. His father and three brothers were also present in Allen County and they all are buried in the West Cairo Cemetery.

By 1920, he and his wife Lizzie had moved to Oregon.
Death and Find-a-Grave notes for Benjamin Franklin (Spouse 1)
