Francis Campbell was my great
grandmother. She grew up in E. St. Louis, Illinois and lived at 901
Valentine, when her only son William Scott Martin was born in 1915. Very little is known about her 1st husband, William Marvin Martin. Frances and William married in 1914, St. Louis. Additionally, we know that he was employed at the Funsten Nut and Fruit Company in St. Louis when their son, William Scott Martin was born. William Marvin Martin was the manager of that same company in the
TIMELINE for Frances
Where was Francis in 1920?
William Scott Martin was studing to be an understudy for child star - Jackie Coogan
- photos would indicate ca 1920 - 1923.
We have found some information about a William M. Martin with very similiar backgrounds to our missing great grandfather.
Frances married a second time to Pete Eftimoff. They lived together until 1950 when they separated and divorced.
Several photos exist of Frances, but none of missing great grandpa Martin.
