                   NOTES: 6 May 2000 - Bill Packer has DOB for Martha as 12 Oct 1782, and so does Julie Shellberg who has a lot of info on
ancestry.

NOTES: September 2013 - This info found in "Red River Settlers"  Mantlo
    Little is known of the Mantlo family before they arrived in Robertson County, Tennessee.  The name is so similar to that of the Croatoan Indian, Manteo, that it is only natural to wonder if the Mantlo family traces through Indian blood.
    In 1933, there was an old Bible in Springfield, Tennessee, in the possession of a descendant, which contained the following entries:   (I will list only the info that pertains to the person on each PAF file)
    "Martha Burnette Harris, born September 29, 1782 in Louisa County, Virginia."
