Martin ( G ? ) Keith-1838-39 through 1869
For well over a year I have been searching for the parents of Martin ( G ? ) Keith. The first record I was able to find of Martin was in Probate Records, Noble County, Ohio. A marriage record dated 1858 to Margaret Sparrowgrove. Later on I found a marriage record to Rhoda A. Carnes dated 1868. The probate records indicate Martin died in 1869 at the age of 30. Martin had a least one child, a son, Wesley " Elmer " Keith born in 1861 and died in 1929. Wesley Elmer was my Great Grandfather and was married to Rebecca Kirkbride Crosson Keith. They spent many years of their life in South Olive, Ohio. I remember visiting that home when I was a child and it still stands today. I have searched cemetery records in South Olive, as well as, Keithtown , but was unable to link Martin to any of the many Keith Families that lived in this area during this period of time. If you have any information that could help it would be appreciated. Even a small bit of information could help.
