    Notes 
    • Quinna Howard Cooper emailed, in July 2014, that Joseph Edgar Martin's parents were Joseph S Martin, born June 29, 1858 in MS. He died February 12, 1923 and he is buried in Cliburn Cemetery in Lawrence County, MS. His mother was Permelia Jane Mullens, and she was born June 26, 1848 in MS. She died January 11, 1931. She is also buried in Cliburn Cemetery in Lawrence County, MS.

      Could he be a descendant of Norman Martin (b. 1798 in North Carolina) of Clarke County, Mississippi, who had many descendants that would marry into the McLemore family in and around Copiah County?
