    2. MICHAEL MARTINEZ
    3. We were talking about unusual names....well as I said here's my great Aunt Lois. Needless to say she despised her first name "Pokie." She was named after an Indian woman that was a Nanny and then wife to one of her parents relatives....haven't found any of that in the records for sure yet. The woman was given the name "Pokiehontas" by the family and they thought enough about her to name their daughter after her. Pokie Lois Joiner was born 23 May 1909 in Trigg Co., KY. {Note: She is still alive, but I have her permission to search for her family's roots so am free to give her info. } Her parents were James Israel Joiner and Emily Katherine Castleberry. On 10 Jul 1926 she married Odis P. Chapman, the son of James Thurston Chapman and Lee Ella McCarter. Odis was born 7 Apr 1904 in Guthrie, KY. He died 13 Oct 1968 and is buried in Flat Lick Cemetery in Christian County, KY. Children: 1. Herschel Chapman b. 26 Jul 1930, d. 31 Oct 936 and is buried in Flat Lick Cemetery 2. Odis Chapman, Jr. (b. 1927) m. Margie Robertson (daughter of Fred Robertson and Wilma Clark) 3. James Ray Chapman (b. 1935) m. Carole Wade 4. Ella Mae Chapman (b. 1935) m. Robert Cates Wade (son of Campbell Marion Wade and Alice Cates) NOTE: James and Ella Mae are twins. NOTE: If you are interested in this line at all, Ella Mae Chapman Wade is working on this branch of our family, I'd be happy to pass along your queries.
