Mary Martin is my 4th great aunt. She also went by Polly. She alternately used Martin (her bio father’s last name) and Duncan (her stepfather’s last name.)
Mary’s mother (and also my 4th great grandmother) is Juda Roach, b. 1809 and d. 1850, while giving birth to a son in Cherokee County, Georgia.
I am on Ancestry and have this fairly well documented there. My username is BriKie on Ancestry as well, if you’d like to look it over.
Hi. Mary Martin/Polly Duncan was my 3 great grandmother. Thomas’s daughter Lora was my grandmother. Lora had 2 sisters, Phrona and Mabel. She had children Thomas, Harriet, James and a daughter no one discussed and I only met once. Odd situation. Any info past that would be appreciated.
Hi, annetelesco. This is your cousin Susan, Harriets’s daughter. You can email me at 4catprints@gmail.com
Lol, my mother has good stories about Aunt Lora, the one “no one discussed” and other family tales – how Grandmother was called “Injun” as a child in Oklahoma and much, much more. Please get in touch with me. Lee and I would love to see you again.
Love, Susie
