Michael Martine and Susannah Holliocke, daughter of Edward of Rumney Marsh, were married by Governor John Endicott at Chelsea, Massachusetts, on 12 August 1656.[1]
Michael was a mariner and a publican. On 12 October 1669 Michael Martin, mariner, bought land nigh the new meeting house from Richard Martin. On 1 July 1678 Michael Martine was granted a license to keep a house of public entertainment. The license was renewed to 1682 when it was given to his widow.[2]
According to Mrs. William Cushing, the children of Michael and Susanna Martyn were the following, all born in Boston:[3]
- Michael Martine, born 10 Feb. 1659;[4] d. 14 Feb. 1660.

- Edward Martyn , born 12 July 1665.[7]

There may have been additional children; the reference in the will to "girls" suggests that there were multiple daughters living as of 1682.
