Robert Levi Martin; 1853-1905 GA
Robert Levi Martin was born in 1853 in Lumpkin Co., GA to William J. Martin (1818-1860; NC>GA) and Lettie Pruett (1826-1891: SC>GA). Levi is with his family in Gwinnett Co., GA census, two weeks before his father dies. I find in legal land deed records Levi sold his share of his share of his father's inheritence to his step father, E.P. Harvey in 1872. No other records found until February 1905 when the Gwinnett Co. newspaper announced Levi Martin, brother of Ezekiel P. Martin, Esq., had died in Gainesville, Hall Co., GA; leaving behind a wife and two children. He is buried in an unmarked grave in Harmony Grove Methodist Cemetery in Barrow Co., GA where many of his family of origion and their descendants are buried.
I have no idea where he was since before the militia 1864 census he was not living with his mother and step father. I have not found any census, will, or marriage for him. Surely someone is looking for a long lost Robert Levi Martin?
Thank you!
Ellen
