Biography
“Roland and Judy Martin were married in 1977. It was not until after they were married that Roland and [Judy’s] father began talking about family history when it was discovered that [Judy’s] grandfather and Roland’s father were from the Odessa area. There was only a river that separated the two colonies in which they were raised.” – note from the donor, Judy Martin
