Paul E. Martin was the son of Archie and Nancy Martin who moved to Ames in 1913 from Georgia. The Martins were among the few pioneer African-American families in early Ames. This photo of one of their five sons (they also had two daughters) seems to date from his service in the First World War. (See also: 222.1268.4-5 and 222.1269.1)
