Individual Details

NOTE:
Elijah and Anna are buried on farmland once owned by Elijah, and deeded to son Martin 15 April 1850 (book 13, p 367). The deed states it was a gift of love and consideration, 160 acres located N. E. quarter of section 23, twp. 16N, Range 5W. Many deeds are found in Hendricks Co. Indiana for Elijah and his sons dating from 10 May 1833. In a biographical sketch found in "History of Hendricks County" p 536 on Jeremiah Tinder, he states Elijah was a native of Scotland, and his mother Anna a native of Germany. It cannot be contested that the Tinder's were from Scotland, yet all Census records state Elijah was born in Virginia. According to a record found on Anna's father Samuel Martin Sr. he was the son of Henry and Mary Ann Martin, and Henry was the eldest son of the immigrant John Joseph Martin. Elijah accompanied his parents, James Tinder Sr. and wife Sarah, to Woodford County, Kentucky in 1806
