Martin and Mary Kitzmiller came from Pennsylvania and settled in Washington County, Tenn., about the year 1800. Kitzmiller was converted at the age of fifteen, and was baptized into the fellowship of the Buffalo Ridge Church, Washington County. Two years later, by authority of this church, he was ordained to the work of the ministry. He became an active and influential minister in the Holston Association, his name being prominent and of frequent occurrence in the minutes of that body. He was pastor of the Buffalo Ridge Church in 1845; (Benedict), and was also pastor of Harmony and Fall Branch, and perhaps other churches. (From Knox County historical society (visit link) )
