MARTIN

When I was 7, we moved to Indianola in Pittsburg county. My father died at Talihina, Ok. in 1967. But, we still lived at Indianola. My mother and I lived across the street from the Indianola School. Click here to see a picture of the old

Daddy's first wife was Elsie BROWN. They had 5 children to live to adulthood. The youngest of them,has passed away. Aubrey Dale MARTIN, born Aug. 5, 1933, died Dec. 30, 1995.

I am looking for information on my dad's ancestor's. He was William MARTIN born Oct. 1, 1899, in Calvin, Indian Territory. His father was James F. G. MARTIN, who was born in Arkansas. (I have new census info to lead me in this direction). He had two children born in Paris, Lamar Co. Texas, to a woman whose last name was ATTEBERRY. I now believe her name was Mary E. ATTEBERRY. James F. G. MARTIN was married to Cornela A. "Sis" GRAY, after Atterbury. She was born in Marion Co., Alabama. My dad is the only child of James and Cornela that I know of. She died in Oklahoma, before my dad was 10 years old. (I am thinking she may have died soon after giving birth to my father). James F. G. MARTIN remarried on February 11, 1908, to a Mrs. T. M. COOPER of Booneville, Arkansas. I have a copy of this marriage license. James F. G. MARTIN, died in Ft. Smith, Arkansas and is buried at Booneville, Arkansas. I have a census from 1880 Johnson Co., Texas that lists my grandfather and his wife Mary E. (ATTEBERRY, I believe. I am still trying to find the parents of James F. G. MARTIN I know believe he was born in Arkansas, going by what I find on the 1920 and 1880 census records. I still have not found him on the 1910 or 1900 census records.
