Arthur MartinBorn 25 Dec 1909 Moore, Fergus County, Montana, died 4 Jan 1910 Moore, Fergus County, Montana, age 1 week and 3 days Arthur Martin was the infant son of Katherine Rooney and Rolland Clyde Martin. Patrick Rooney was an uncle of Katherine's, who died in 1909, so it seems very likely the two were buried in the same grave site or near each other, with a common marker. Patrick was not married, so it would not have been his son, but the marker could still establish it was a Rooney grave. 2.
