• Notes

  Zelma Minyard and Clyde Martin are the biological parents of Reba Pauline, Ruby Clydine, and Clyde Martin, Jr. After the Death of Clyde Martin in 1926, Zelma married Curtis Willis. Curtis did not want and did not think they could afford the children. Therefore they were adopted by other members of the Martin family. Reba Pualine (age 7) and Ruby Clydine (age 5) were adopted (1937) by Ida Bell Cato and William Luther (Bill) Martin. Clyde Jr. was adopted by Virgie Overstreet and Barney Martin. After adoption they were raised near Lockett in Wilbarger Co., Texas.
