William and Letitia (Young) Martin lived on Peter/s Creek, *** east of old Pikesville—between Lamb and Mt. Hermon in Monroe County, Kentucky, today. William Martin was a trustee (August, 1819) of the (historical) town of Pikesville (1818)—in Barren County, before 1820—the communities of Flippin and Lamb in Monroe County, today. He also purchased property in the town, and was granted a license (1819) by Barren County Court to operate a tavern (i.e., Innkeeper) in Pikesville (Arterburn, 2014). He was named in Barren County Court records (see Photos), January 17, 1820, as a trustee of the town of Tompkinsville (1816)—soon to be county seat of the new county of Monroe, which was officially organized, January 19, 1820.
In the 1850 Monroe County Census, William and Letitia Martin were listed adjacent to Joel Flowers, whose home at Lamb (Hwy 249) was situated on a 350-acre farm mostly west of Peter/s Creek.
*** (AKA "Snell/s Creek," named for John Snell, in some early Deeds)

From Find A Grave Contributor 50017691:
"[William's] father was John Martin (annotated "B.C." for Ballinger Creek) as listed on his sister Anne's marriage license in Albemarle County, Virginia.
"Warren County Deed Book 1A p. 7, Sept 10, 1798, William along with brother James Martin, guardian of Patsy Young, legally claimed tract, surveyed by Andrew McFaddin and deeded to them so to start to clear the 500 forested acres on Peters Creek (Snells Creek), witnessed by John Martin, brother. The young family moved to Barren County (changed to Monroe County in 1820) and raised 9 children: Virginia D "Jane", Judith Young, Martha "Patsy" Young, William D, John P, Woodford W, James W, Hudson W, and Annie."
