Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Margaret "Marge" Elizabeth Martin was born on 21 Nov 1862 in Brookeland, Sabine County, Texas; died on 7 Mar 1937 in Brookeland, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Brookeland Cemetery, Brookeland, Sabine County, Texas.

    Notes:

    In her annotated transcription of the Brookeland Cemetery, Kay Parker McCary shows her as the wife of A. J. (???) Powell, but later shows her husband as Richard Benjamin Powell.

    A J Powell was born 14 Mar 1855-died 7 Aug 1927. Did this listing of her husband as A J Powell perhaps relate to a second marriage for Margaret, or was it simply an error?

    Margaret married Richard Benjamin Powell on 14 Sep 1876 in Jasper County, Texas. Richard was born on 14 Jul 1854 in Mississippi; died on 3 Nov 1921 in Browndell, Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Brookeland Cemetery, Brookeland, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
