Baytonians Celebrate 60th Wedding Anniversary
Nelson A. Martin and Bessie Frances Brown marked sixty years of marriage with an open house at the Holiday Inn. They hail from Baytown families with deep local ties, including early settlers in Cedar Bayou and work histories in oil and education. Their two sons Cecil and Floyd Martin joined relatives for the celebration.
