St. John, where Henry Martin lived and died has been the administrative center of Antigua and Barbuda since the islands were first colonized by Britain in 1632, and it became the seat of government when the nation achieved independence in 1981. Henry Martin's Probated Will was in London, England. It lists his living children and wife at the time. A copy of the original is now attached to his record.

Found absolutely no record of land deeds, tax records, or parish records during the life of Henry Martin or his heirs, they only had business dealings with Antigua. They never lived, nor died there, I went through the pages and pages of records,

I'm working on the actual original documentation of this family. None of Henry's children are listed anywhere in Parish Births Antigua [https://dloc.com/UF00075409/00001/flipbook/115]
I am contacting you about this profile: Child Henry Martin.

This list is a very complete and reliable source for marriages, births, and burials. Can you please provide us with the actual documentation you found for all of this family? I'm finding conflicting records. Henry was a wealthy merchant, from Virginia, had business in the West Indies, Virginia, and then settled in London, England.
