RE: Patrick Charles Martin
I told Mr. Hall and Gen Tidwell years ago that the Cawoods married into our family also. One of my cousins married S. Cawood Swann. However, he was killed during WWII, and she never really knew anything about his family. They are both buried in our Huntt family cemetery - along with the three sons she had to raise on her own. So many cousins married cousins in the earlier centuries that there has to be a common link somewhere.
There are Wards and Martins buried in our cemetery also. In fact, the cemetery was started in 1858, when my great-great-grandparents' eldest daughter died in childbirth. She was married to a Ward. An elderly cousin that I knew as a child was named T. Ward Martin. There is a great book called Stones and Bones, which lists all known graves in Prince George's County cemeteries. The Huntt family graveyard is right across the line in Charles County, so they included it in the book. I'll dig out my copy of the book and see what others I can find. Since I'm the "guardian" of the cemetery, you'd think I'd remember who is buried there... P.S. The Wards also married into the Wyvill family - as in Dr. Edward Wyvill, who lived near the Surratts and was obviously a part of the Doctor's Line, judging by letters and a diary kept by the family's governess. |
