James and Ann's daughter, Martha S., married George W. Kindig on October 14, 1869. The Kindig family members were family friends from Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

The family made their home in Chatham Township in Wayne County, Ohio. The family moved to Kansas for a short time where their last child, Jesse G., was born in May 1883. George died in 1886 leaving Martha with a very large family to rear. In 1900 the family was living in Wayne Township in Wayne County, Ohio. With the children grown, Martha returned to Canaan and was living there alone in 1910. In 1920, shortly before her death, Martha was living with her son, Orin and his family in Chatham Township.
