OUR MARTER FAMILY
In 9/1773 the Burlington County, NJ improved land rateables show Michael Marter:
1 household - 2 sons and 6 daughters. The sons would have been Thomas and
Abraham. Michael was born in 1742 he would have only been 13 years old at the
time of Thomas's birth and 31 years old at the time of his next offspring - Abraham
-- 18 years between children. Also, No daughters listed below were born before 1773.
It is likely that the 6 daughters were born between Thomas and Abraham and either died
after 1773 or are simply not accounted for.
The (Elder) Thomas Marter was an early citizen of Willingborough Township, Burlington County,
where he was a large landholder near the village of Edgewater Park. The NJ Tax List shows him
as both Thomas "Marthers" and "Marter", first paying taxes in 1797. The Tax List shows
Thomas paying taxes in Monmouth County and Burlington County, NJ.
