Maria and Julian's son, Adam Martinez (1903-2000), was the longest-living male of the family and perhaps the longest-living of anyone in the family. He was not generally known as a potter but primarily helped Maria and Santana with gathering and mixing clay for their pottery and for firing the completed pieces.
