In the 1910 census James Martin's first wife Rennie was reported as 28 years old, and they had been married for 6 years. Their marriage record found later (see below) reports they had actually been married about 5 1/2 years, married in January 1905. Their two daughters were 4 years and 1 year old. 1910 Federal Census, Murray County, Georgia, 7 April, District 8, Enumeration District 111, Page 14A, Fields Terry Rd, Hse/Fam #251 Lance, Martin Head M W 28 Married 6 yrs GA GA GA Farmer, Working Out [b abt 1882] Lance, Rennie Wife F W 28 Married 6 yrs 2 Children/2 Living GA GA GA [b abt 1882] Lance, Delta Dau F W 4 Single GA GA GA [b abt 1906] Lance, Ollie Dau F W 1 Single GA GA GA [b abt 1909] Rennie died about 1916 or 1917. In her daughter Ollie's Social Security records, Ollie's mother is reported as Rellie Moore, giving us her maiden name as well as another form of her first name. Confirmation of the apparently correct form of her mother's name came when a search under Rellie Moore brought up a marriage record. Rellie may be a nickname for Cinderella. One wonders how the enumerator heard Rennie for Rellie.

The place of death, however, was reported as Gilmer County, while family residence information seems to indicate it was more likely Pickens County. They were living in Pickens County in 1918 when James registered for the draft. James was still there in 1920 when the census was taken. Years of birth and death are approximate but very close, based on other family factors. James married Bonnie Cowart in September 1918.

On his death certificate, his informant for the death certificate, his wife, reports the name as L M Moore. His father died when he was a child. It may be his wife did not get the name right for some reason. It seems more likely that Raymond would have known his father's name. His mother remarried when he was about 4 years old. I was able to locate Seaton and Victoria's marriage record and confirm that his name was indeed Seaton.
