Was reared by his Aunt, Mrs. Robert Argoe [Mary Catherine Livingston] of Orangeburg County. When he became heir of most of her property, he (because of some confusion in Orangeburg relating to the burning of some of his buildings) returned to live in Newberry County.
At a somewhat advanced age he married Annie Bobb, a very pretty young girl of Newberry. They lost a young daughter who burned to death, a son and another daughter who were killed in a family tragedy, and only one son survived. He was an officer in the United States Army until his retirement.
The second husband of Annie Bobb Strauss was a Bissell from Orangeburg, and he too was lost in "a tragedy".
Martin Livingston Strauss and his brother, Emanuel, were men of some wealth and loaned money to the farmers of Newberry for interest. They always had a large amount of company at the old home place, where people use to come and play cards and talk. --Beiman Otis Prince (Author of "Let's Meet the Livingstons")
Mr. Prince mildly referred to the deaths of the children and Annie's second husband as "Tragedies". The fact is that Annie murdered her two children and her second husband. And it is highly suspected that she also may have killed the little girl, Mary Elizabeth. (Details are available in the Newberry Herald & News issues from November 25, 1932; March 24, 1933; September 28, 1934; and October 19, 1934)--Don Whitaker
