Carrie T. Witham +James Williams+John A. Martis+George A. Wilson
I have a Caroline "Carrie" T. Witham, daughter of John B. Witham & Ann P. Akers(of Maine) born in Portland, Maine in 1847.
She has numerous siblings, including John B. Witham Jr. who died in MA in 1910.
I have marriage records for Carrie's marriages to:
James Williams in Portland, ME ini 1863
(POSSIBLE: Thomas Meaneley or Measley in ME in 1865; still trying to figure out if this is the same Carrie.)
John A. Martis in Boston, MA in 1870; Her name is down as Carrie T. Williams, with parents of John Witham & Ann P.
John A. Martis is the son of Anthony Martis & Sophronia Batcheller, found birthdates for him of: about 1848 & 1850.
------
Have found thus far TWO birth records for children to John A. Martis & Carrie:
Adela Adeline Martis b. in Boston in 1871.
Darius Burham Martis b. in Boston in 1872.
-------
After that both John A. Martis and Carrie 'disapear' seemingly from records.
-------
Carrie shows up again in the 1880 US Census of Waterville, ME, now married to:
George A. Wilson
b. 1850 in MA
----
They have numerous children in this census:
*Addie A. Wilson b. 1871 in MA
(I strongly believe this is Adela Adeline Martis with the now adopted name of Wilson)
*Brooks B. Wilson b 1873 in MA (could be Darius?? IDK-John A. Martis had a brother & Uncle named Brooks B. Martis)
*Francis W. Wilson b. 1874 in NH
*George A. Wilson JR b. 1876 in NH
*Henry E. Wilson b 1879 in ME
------
In George Atwood Wilson Jr.'s line he tells his kids that he was 'adopted by/into the Wilson family' and that his original name was "Martis" (NEW info my mother told me the other night, in my other postings on Genforum pertaining to Geo. Atwood Wilson Jr my own Nana (when very old) said she thought it was "Martaise?/Maytis?/Maytisi?/Martisi?" she couldn't exactly recall. and that he was part "Indian".)
I have not been able to locate a birth record for George A Wilson Jr or a Marriage record of Carrie T. Witham Williams Martis to George A. Wilson. Or birth records for the children, except for Harry E. Wilson.
----
Brooks B. Wilson died in Washington State and married.

George Atwood Wilson Jr. died in Chelsea, MA June 17, 1935; there is no birthdate on his death record. (He has MULTIPLE birth years on his other Records (Military/Census/Kids birthrecords) (1872-1874-1875-1876/in MA/ME/NH)He married Josephine Dunlea (Dunley) in Boston, MA 1908.
