Roundtable and Martin Family Home Movies




Martin Family Home Movies


During their visit together in Texas last week, Margaret Foster and Darwin Martin Foster discovered home movies from the 1930s, many of which feature the grandchildren themselves.  Other family members in these movies are Isabelle Martin, Darwin Martin, daughter Dorothy Martin Foster and her husband, James Foster, Isabelle's mother Katherine Reidpath and even Aunt Polly (not to mention the family dog Mookie!)

Special thanks to Betsy Mudra and her husband Rick, who not only sent the movies, but also provided the following notes:

*Wonder who took the pictures and videos? It was Darwin R. Martin. Thank goodness he did.
* Katherine was always in black with a black choker necklace
*Forgive me....but, aunt Marmy (Margaret) was the not so pretty one with the big nose. Marmy is Isabelle's sister  (We believe she often stayed in the sun room in Darwin's suite.)
*The young nurse with black hair is Peggy- Dary 's nanny
*Miss King often called "king" was older and heavier. She was Margaret's nanny
