In the 1830's he's listed in the Hunterdon, New Jersey. Aaron and his wife Keziah, had 8 children. I've been able to account for all except for Andrew.

Martin origins

The furthest I can go is Austin Martin born in Quebec, Canada about 1815 and died in Mexico, Oswego, New York about 1893. I presume my Father's side of the family came from France but am unable to prove it yet. I have an 1850, 1860, 1870 Mexico, New York census records. His son Anthony is his neighbor in the 1860 Mexico, New York census. He must have been married at least three times. The only idea I can come up with is to find Catholic records that my prove but, I have no idea which parish or if the records exist.

Strimples

The Strimple line came probably from the Bayern region of Germany. The patriarch is Johann Wilhelm Strempel who sailed aboard the Snow Kitty in the mid 1700s and landed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1756. He later married Christiana Sax in New Jersey. Their son John Strimple fought in the Revolutionary War in the 2nd and 4th New Jersey Regiment. He fought at Elizabethtown, Brandywine, and was at Valley Forge during the winter. Most of the Strimple descendants living in northern Ohio are descended from John.
