THOMAS MARTINDELL. Among the wealthy, enterprising and generally respected
citizens of East Bethlehem township,none are more favorably known than this
prominent agriculturist. He is a native of the county, born October 28, 1824, in West
Pike Run township, where he was reared on his father's farm, and educated at
the subscription schools of the vicinity, and a select school in Centreville, taught by
John Reid.
ThomasMartindell, his grandfather, was of English descent, and one of the early
settlers of Bucks county, Penn., where he passed almost his entire life, dying at
the advanced age of ninety-five years. His wife was Mary Booth, who was
descended from an old and well-known family of Bucks county. Thomas and
Mary Martindell were the parents of the following children, all now deceased:
Sarah (who married John Van Horn), Rebecca, Mary and William.
William Martindell was born September 6, 1793, in Bucks county, Penn., where he
was reared to farming pursuits. When a young man he removed to and settled in
West Pike Run township,this county, where he learned shoemaking, although he
never worked much at the trade, his time and attention being too much taken up on the farm. He marriedElizabeth, daughter of John Fleming, in his lifetime a prominent
farmer of Washington county, and the young couple then took up their home on a
farm in West Pike Run township, where they passed the remainder of their lives.
Their children were Mary Ann (Mrs. McMillan), Catherine (Mrs. Baker) and Thomas.
The mother of this family was called from earth April 7, 1833, the father
April 6, 1852; he was a Quaker in religious faith, in politics a member of the

Note: I had the name of the cemetery as Otterbein UMC Church before, now I have

Note:
The information for Sarah Ann Vanhorn's lineage wascompiled by my
Dad's Uncle Bill (I think). I haven't found any problems withwhat he
had (going back to the name Isaac Van Horn). He had lots of birth
dates for the John VanHorn generation and on. It appears by the fact
that he had so many dates that perhaps he had found a family Bible? I
don't know his sources, but the census records seem to show his
conclusions reasonable.
I had dates of 30 Jun 1816-3 Oct 1872
Internet (cemetery) has 21 Jun 1816-4 Oct 1872 (76-3-13)
Note, the first two children, John and Sarah appear to be named after Thomas's parents.
Were Nathan and Emma named after Margaret's? No...(they were her siblings)Thomas married Margaret HELLINGS Abt 1839, Bucks Co, PA.

- _UID: 3F5E0FFEF0E840BDACC0218C609FC941A1D9
Notes:
I just made up a reasonable birth year. The name Mary Ann came from
my dad'suncle's research (1940's??). No sources were given - just the
names (which have so far been correct).
the one source on the Martindales says that John and Sarah had
a son Thomas and one other child.
I wonder if Mary Ann might really be a reference to the Mary Ann Hellings,
listed as a daughter of Margaret Hellings in the will of Rachel Hellings (her
mother). Possibly born out-of-wedlock.
