Notes:



buried in Pollard cemetery, Denton Co TX

--
another researcher sends:

Leslie Long is said to have commonly referred to Martha Priscilla Long nee' Miller [daughter of this Martha's brother John] as his "little Indian grandmother". I was told by several older family members that Nelson's wife Martha "Patsy" Miller was a full-blood.

Martha is buried on Hugh E. Long's farm in Denton, TX.

--
DNA results show that Martha's mother was not Native American.
It's still possible that there is Native American on her father's side.
