I was "antiquing" this week-end and found a hand-created petit point or cross-stitch that was done by a woman named Angelina Bates Martin. Her husband's name was Luther Prentice Martin. The oldest son, Henry Luther Martin, born 1835, is in the Worcester census in 1880. There is also a son named George Prentice Martin. I did not purchase this stitchery, but it could be invaluable to someone who descends from these people. Not only was it very well done, but it had all their children, with birth, marriage and death dates.
