Best Answer

The first person with the surname Martin to come to America may have been Christopher Martin. He came on the Mayflower in 1620 from Plymouth, England to Plymouth in what became the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He was the Treasurer of the settlement but died shortly after he landed because of the brutal winter weather that the pilgrims were not prepared for. He had a son, John Martin, who did not make the trip to American but became Captain of the Mayflower many years later.
