4 Mariah SEIBER was born about 1846 in Anderson County, Tennessee to Rev. John SEIBER and Alvina KINCAID. She died 12 April 1885 in Scott County, Arkansas and was buried in Lone Star Cemetery on Ft. Chaffee Reservation in Arkansas. Mariah married Samuel Andrew MARTIN on 28 December 1869 in Roane County, Tennessee. Samuel was born 29 September 1849 in Tennessee to Samuel MARTIN and Charlotte WALLS. He died 30 March 1923 in Mansfield, Arkansas and was buried April 1923 in Lone Star Cemetery on Ft. Chaffee Reservation in Arkansas. NOTE: Had no information on Mariah and Samuel except their marriage record until August 2000. Corresponded by e-mail with Barbara E. Burrows who descends from this couple. She originally had Mariah as daughter of Henry Seiber. But looking thru my information I found the proof that she needed to tie her Mariah to our Rev. John Seiber and Alvina Kincaid. She told me that her mother had originally thought that Mariah was daughter of Rev. John Seiber and wife Alvina. She mailed me many, many names of descendents of Samuel and Mariah.. She said that after Mariahs death Samuel married Martha Ellen MILLER. So, having permission to add her line I will only do one generation since she is writing a family history THANK YOU! Barbara.
