Grace Martin lived at 968 Court Circle, Los Angeles in 1910. It appears that the street is no longer there, but the cross street was Temple. Court Circle was lost to the 110 freeway. She was 15 years old in 1910, having been born in February of 1895. She was the daughter of Franklin Martin, a widowed carriage painter. Grace appears to have been born in California but the family was from Illinois. At the time she had an older brother George, who was 16. The family appears in the 1900 Census, and at that time Franklin's parents were also living with them. The next time they are found are in the 1910 Census on Court Circle. The family appears again in the 1920 census, still at the same address, a home Franklin owned. The information for the family is the same except that Franklin is now painting automobiles instead of carriages.
