About John P. Martin

Isaac 1 did mention a John in his will and it is theorized that John was the father of Spencer Martin who was hanged for horse stealing in 1795. It was Spencer's 2nd offence. He was granted clemency the first time in part due to a letter attesting to his good character which appears to have been signed by multiple sons of Isaac 1 including James, William and Giles.
