I found John Taylor Martin's obituary, as well as Orbie and
Katherine.   I will list each because they are small:

Pallbearers; Marvin Burns, Bill McWhorter, Grover Hice, Joe Moore,
Jessie Emmons, Robert Kennedy. CAMP FUNERAL HOME - Ta1-1443

Notes: The date for Orbie Martin at the funeral home is 4-1-70 and I
know that dad died on 3-30-70;   so the funeral home is using the
date the body arrived.    In 1970, 3-30-1970 was on a Monday and
4-1-70 was on a Tuesday  and Wednesday (the day he was put in the
ground) was 4-2-70.

The date John Taylor Martin arrived at the funeral home was 4-29-61,
so I am assuming he died on 4-28-61.   He was put in the ground on
Saturday  4-29-61.

The date Katherine Irene Martin arrived at the funeral home was
1-6-68, which means she probably passed away on 1-5-1968, which is
Friday, 1-5-1968.     She was put in the ground on Saturday, 1-6-68.

This information is based on official records of Grove Hill Memorial
Park & Funeral Home, 4118 Samuell Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75228,
214-381-7118.    The  obituaries were furnished by the funeral home.
The informant was Doyle Henry, Family Service Manager, 214-381-7118,
