I think Geni may have Martin Male lineage extending out past this era. Did I understand this statement?

I came across this while working on one of the sons who online trees said survived and tied into one of my lineages, As I was working on the documentation, well docs didn't add up to online trees.

Do I understand any Martins male Martin surname living today would not be a Martin of Athelhampton?

Nicholas Martin, of Athelhampton
The Last of the surviving Male Martin's

Nicholas was the last of the Martyns and died without SURVIVING male issue in 1595 (he had three sons depicted kneeling behind him on the chantry brasses at St. Mary's Church, Puddleton, Dorset). His estate was divided amongst his four surviving daughters, of whom Elizabeth, the eldest, married Henry Brune; and their son, as heir to his mother, lived at Athelhampton Hall. His great niece, Marie Brune, married Sir Ralph Bankes, son of Sir John Bankes and 'Brave Dame Mary' of Corfe Castle.

How do we have John Martin going to Virginia? ??

Looks like something bad merged in perhaps.
