Martin Robert Huff married (2) Mary Elizabeth Basham after he divorced Mary Jane Gravil Huff in 1895-ish. He was in Mineola, Wood, TX by 1896 purchasing land along side of Mary Elizabeth Basham. Then they had four or five kids (I'd have to check my records). Anyway, she is buried in an unmarked grave next to one of her sons in the city cemetery in Mineola. She is registered to the plot, which bears her son's name, and there is a sunken in spot right next to him. That must be her. Don't feel badly...they buried Martin Robert in the New Hope Cemetery and he doesn't have a tombstone either. I do not have any pictures of Mary Elizabeth since she was not my great grandma, just a step-great grandma. However, some of her ancestors are still in Mineola. I go there frequently enough to stop by and see if I can locate some for you. Have you had any luck finding any more pictures of Basham's? I'd love to have a picture of Mary Jane Gravil (Martin's first wife and my great grandma) if one ever shows up in a collection. I do have a few pictures of Martin Robert.
