CHRISTIAN FREDERICK MARTIN.
A remarkable example of the heredity of in- clination and pursuit is afforded by this family, in which there have been five successive genera- ations of physicians, counting from Christian Frederick Martin, who was one of the very earli- est practioners in Lehigh county, Pennsylvania.
Christian Frederick Martin, the progenitor of the family in America, was born in Prussia, Dec. 22, 1727. He was the son of a Lutheran clergy- man, who was a man of eminence outside of the ministry, and at one time a member of the higher courts or cabinet. He received a collegiate and medical education in Berlin and very soon after graduating from the University of Medicine, he came to America with Rev. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg and others, and settled at the Trappe, in Montgomery county, after having travelled over Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Vir- ginia.
He married at the Trappe, a Miss Schwartley, the daughter of a clergyman, and entered upon the practice of his profession. His wife died after she had borne six children, namely: Fred- erick, John, Samuel, Elizabeth, Ellen, and Mary. The eldest son removed to Otsego county, New York, and died there. The other two sons re- sided all their lives in Montgomery county, Pa.
Elizabeth married a Mr. Egner, and Ellen a Mr. Hartzell, while Mary became the wife of Johannes Dickenshied, and was the mother of Dr. Charles F. Dickenshied, born in 1791, and

became the head of a long line of eminent phy- sicians.
Dr. Martin married, second, Miss Mary Mil- ler, a native of the Trappe. Soon after this event, Mr. Miller, learning of a tract of land in Macungie township, which was to be sold at public sale, advised his daughter to purchase it. She rode on horseback to the farm near Emaus on the day of the sale, and made the purchase.
To this place Dr. Martin and his wife re- moved about 1762, and there all of their children were born. These were: Andrew, Jacob, George, Charles H., Peter, and Anna, who mar- ried Peter Bright. Four of the sons became phy- sicians, whose history is mentioned elsewhere.
Dr. Martin continued to practice in Macun- gie and the surrounding country until near the close of his life, his "ride" covering Lehigh coun- ty, and extended far into Montgomery, Bucks, Northampton, and what is now Carbon county.
He educated his sons in medicine by lectures on anatomy, illustrated by Eustache's plates, and others on surgery, obstetrics, practice, materia medica, and botany. He was a finished scholar, owned a large library, and was fond of teaching and demonstrating. He died June 13, 1812, aged 84 years, and was buried in the graveyard of the Little Lehigh church, beyond Millerstown (now Macungie). The inscription upon the tablet at his tombstone reads thus :
"Hier 'Ruht' in Gott Doc Christian Frederick Martin er wurde geborn dem 22 ten Decbr 1727 und ist im Herrn entsclofen dem 13 ten Junius 1812 er bracht sein alter zu 84 yahr 5 M. 22 Tage"

After William Edward had laid an educational foundation in the Allentown public schools, he took, in 1881, a course of lectures at the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. Because of his tender age a diploma to practice medicine could not be given him. This caused him to leave the university and enter the biological course at Yale College. He graduated from Yale in the spring of 1885, with the expectation of returning to the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. During the summer va- cation he assisted Mr. A. B. Fichter in starting a silk factory at South Bethlehem.

In 1887 he was one of the incor- porators of the Bethlehem Silk Company. He succeeded to its presidency a year later. These two industries later moved into a large mill erected by Bethlehem's Board of Trade. The plant increased until today nearly three acres of floor space are under roof and nearly 800 em- ployees at work. In religion he is an Episcopalian.
In politics a Republican, and in 1907 he was elected to the borough council and two years later he was elected by a large popular majority to the office of chief burgess of the borough of Bethlehem. His term of office expired Jan. 5, 1914.

In 1911, he was elected to the presidency of the Industrial Com- mission of Bethlehem (Board of Trade) and served for two and one-half years. He is also a member of the Joint Bridge Commission, a body of prominent citizens organized to bring about better bridge facilities between the Bethlehems.
