Individual Notes
• I have spent a confusing day looking through the Earl file and have learned that the progenitor is Robert Earl b 1737 s/o Joseph b 1702 Eng. who married Miriam Brooker. He relocated in Augusta in 1801 (Lot 27 Con 5) and appears on every census till his death. His son Joseph b 1758 stayed in the states after they both had served in the American forces. They should be listed on the pension rolls. Robert's other sons except Henry who died young had children and thereby descendants living locally but I can find no mention of which one sired your Joseph and named him after their grandfather or brother in 1819.
The family of Sarah Jane Martin is documented as this family was prominent among the first Loyalist settlers. There are several brief mentions of the Earl origins in several news clippings but they are not supported by our records.
