I think there seems to be some miscommunication.
I do know my direct lineage to Edward Martinge.

It all comes together... I am just overchecking and adding more relatives that I get in contact with

Ok, that may be so ... I must have misunderstood you somewhere along the line - I thought you did not have any supporting docmentation to show any descendants of Edward. Sorry, my mistake.

That's ok Ruskie.

Their were many people named Martinge around that time, but the name has now vanished for some reason, possibly to variations. I already found a burial for Edwarde Martinge in St Andrews Church, Feniton, Devon in 1586. A lot of his children were buried here too...

. . . or possibly just due to literacy (or not) and spelling?
Most people weren't literate.

Remember that spelling just wasn't important back then, and priests, officials and enumerators wrote down what they thought they heard! ::)

Yes. It may have been some spanish name or something. Not sure.

Can anyone help me trace one of his male descendants - JAMES MARTINGE born 1569 in Feniton, Devon, England. Baptised 4 July 1569 in St Andrew’s Church, Feniton, Devon, England.

Obviously, fathers name is Edward Martinge born circa 1530
