Yep, that is my ggrandma. And Thanks Lynda for looking out for me. I remember well her funeral. It was held on my Grandmother's front porch. There was hundreds of people there. The complete front yard was full of people seated and many standing around and sitting in the ground. The whole town was there. Of course she was married to Will Smith and the town was Smithsboro.

Hoosh Martin in his Martin book said James Martin & Milly Martin had 10 children. After 2 years of searching, I located a candidate for DNA testing and his results yesterday show he is a descendant of James & Milly thorough their son James Martin (JR). With the DNA tests and a deed from this (JR) to Wyatt Martin, I have no question that this James (JR) is a child of James & Milly that Hoosh missed. A deed has also been found showing they had a daughter Sarah that Hoosh missed. I have looked at early census records now and can count 13 children rather that the 10 Hoosh listed. I am still missing an unidentified daughter but if there are Martin researchers interested in how I have listed this Martin family, let me know and I will get my information to you. Jack Martin
