Henry was born about 1680 in New Kent, Virginia. He married Jane Samuel and they had 7 children. Henry Martin passed away after April 19, 1748, the date of his will. (Spotsylvania County Will Book A, pg 508; see image of Will attached to profile)) On March 21, 1719, Henry Martin purchased 260 acres on the ‘hasle run” from John Wridings of St. Anne’s Parish, Essex County, Virginia. The land, at the time part of St. Mary’s Parish, Essex County, would become part of St. George’s Parish in Spotsylvania County when they were established by the legislature in 1720. “For 1600 pounds of tobacco and 9 pounds cash. 260 acres…corner to Francis Thornton and near a branch of Massaponax swamp…crossing the forest branch…oak by a branch of the hasle run… crossing one of the main branches of the hasle run….” We know from subsequent transfer records and from Henry’s Will that this property was where Henry made his home, and that his son John lived on 100 acres of this tract.
