Dr. Martin practiced medicine in Pittsburgh for 50 years. He graduated from medical school at the University of Western Pennsylvania in 1900 and opened his practice shortly thereafter. He assisted during surgery performed on former president Theodore Roosevelt in 1920.

Dr. Martin was married 3 times and had one daughter.

His niece, Jennie Anna Ritchie Shelton (Gowey) was the mother of this contributor. She and her uncle were apparently close throughout his life and she recalled him fondly after his death. Dr. Martin's sister, Nellie DeBarenne Martin Ritchie, was my maternal grandmother and died in 1964 in Virginia Beach VA.

When I was age 4-5 my mother took me to the medical office of my great-uncle, Dr. Walton W. Martin. He sat me on his lap and I recall the odor of his mustache from smoking cigars.
