Anne writes, “Could you flesh out that descendency from Martiou to George
Washington? My understanding is that John Washington married the daughter
of Nathanial Pope, Ann, if I remember correctly. Is the connection from
Martiou to Ann Pope?"
Hi Anne,
Sure, I'd be glad to. (I like Capt. Martiau, if you couldn’t tell!) The Martiaus
come into the Washington line through the Warners:
1 Capt. Nicolas Martiau
2. Elizabeth Martiau m. Colonel Geoge Reade
3. Mildred Reade m. Colonel Augustine Warner II
4. Mildred Warner m. Laurence Washington
5. Colonel Augustine Washington m. Mary Ball
6. George Washington
Since Martiau was born in Ile de Ré, France, the French Ambassador dedicated
a statue of Washington at Saint-Martin de Ré in October 2007. On the base of
the monument is a medallion representing Martiau.
All the best,
Connie
