6. | Lewis C. "Case" "Casey" Martin was born on 17 Feb 1857 in Texas (son of Thomas Jefferson Martin and Rebecca "Becky" Richardson); died on 19 May 1908; was buried in Martin Cemetery (Martin's Chapel Cemetery), Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
AKA shown as Louis/Lewis Cass Martin. Shown simply as "L C Martin" on the death certificates of his daughters Mary and Lavisa. The death certificate of youngest daughter, Violet, instead lists him as Royal Casie Martin. It appears that informant in that case may have been assuming that Violet's brother, Royal Casie Martin, was an exact namesake of his father?
Said to be a child of Thomas Jefferson Martin and Rebecca Richardson of Sabine County by most researchers. Anita Sterling, on the "Anderson Family Tree" at Ancestry.com, shows his parents as Thomas Franklin Martin and Rebecca Richardson.
He and his wife Elizabeth lived next door to Thomas and Rebecca at the time of the 1880 census. Additionally, a Case Martin was shown as a brother of Harriett Martin Strickland, a daughter of Tom and Beckie Martin, in a newspaper column about the upcoming birthday of her son Rev. Bob Strickland in the mid 1960's.

13. | Rebecca "Becky" Richardson was born in Feb 1832 in Louisiana; died about 1907 in Texas; was buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery (aka Whitehead Cemetery or Martin-Whitehead Cemetery), Pineland, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Virgie Collier Speights, in OLD TIMERS OF SABINE COUNTY, TEXAS, lists her last name both as Richardson (p. 46) and as Watkins (p. 54).
Notes:
Married:
In Virgie Collier Speights June 11, 1964 column about Rev. and Mrs. Bob Strickland, it is noted that Bob's maternal grandparents were "Tom and Beckie (Watkins--sic) MARTIN, and they have five sons and two daughters, Frank, Case, Lip, Jimmy, Ed, Marge and Harriet Ann, his mother" (Old Timer of Sabine County, Texas, p. 54).
The 1900 census showed that Rebecca had five children, four of whom were still living. Based on both the column referenced above, and the various census enumerations from 1850 through 1880, it appears she had at least the seven children listed above, and possibly one other son that may have died relatively young, Clinton (b. 1855). Perhaps the census information could be interpreted as Rebecca had a total of nine children....five deceased and four still living (or vice versa).
Children:
- William Franklin "Frank" Martin was born in Jul 1847 in Pineland, Sabine County, Texas; died on 16 Jan 1921 in Pineland, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery (aka Whitehead Cemetery or Martin-Whitehead Cemetery), Pineland, Sabine County, Texas.
- Harriet Ann Martin was born on 29 Jan 1852 in Texas; died on 19 Jul 1915; was buried in Bronson Cemetery, Bronson, Sabine County, Texas.
- Clinton Martin was born about 1855 in Texas; and died.
- 6. Lewis C. "Case" "Casey" Martin was born on 17 Feb 1857 in Texas; died on 19 May 1908; was buried in Martin Cemetery (Martin's Chapel Cemetery), Sabine County, Texas.
- Lipscomb "Lip" Nordell Martin was born in Oct 1859 in Texas; and died.
- 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.
- James "Jimmy" M. Martin was born about 1870 in Sabine County, Texas; and died.
- Zeremiah Edward "Eddie" Martin was born on 29 Sep 1876 in Sabine County, Texas; died on 15 Mar 1926; was buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery (aka Whitehead Cemetery or Martin-Whitehead Cemetery), Pineland, Sabine County, Texas.
