mentions Henry Martin of Spotsylvania County.
Not sure which one yet-- I am looking for a marriage record for Benjamin Martin, Sr. and Elizabeth. If she was born 1708, she would have been about 29 when she married giving her plenty of time to have been the same Elizabeth who married Richard Blanton and was widowed after 1731. I only see a record for Elizabeth Larkin married Benjamin Martin but no image yet-- https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/36313116?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a22... but says this Benjamin was born 1713. Again-- is not an image so not sure the index is correct.

See Elizabeth Blanton

Some trees have Elizabeth Mrs Martin as mother of Caleb Martin which would mean named for her father Caleb Lindsey if they are the same woman.
