Hi

I was wondering if anyone is related to this person and has any information.

All I know is William Joseph Martin 1885-1920 was married to Glady's Ada Mary Stahl in 1915. They had 2 children, Themla Martin 1917 and Jeanne Martin 1920. Jeanne was my Granny, she never knew her Father.

Thanks

Penny
