  • Cowgirl Martha Josey
    Cowgirl Martha Josey BY AIMEE ROBINSON 3/1/2014 IN MAGAZINE Starting with only a lot of heart, dedication and a $5 rented horse trailer, a cowgirl from East Texas made history. Martha Josey began her barrel-racing career in 1964. More than five decades of her life are filled with championships and hall-of-fame inductions. This 11-time National Finals Rodeo competitor and 1988 Olympic exhibition sport medalist hangs her hat at the Josey Ranch in Marshall. Martha’s family has deep roots in East Texas. She is the granddaughter of Mattie Castleberry, who is famous for putting in nightclubs around Texas and Oklahoma oil boomtowns. Martha’s father, Robert Arthur, is credited with bringing one of the first quarter horses into East Texas in the early 1940’s. “When I was 10 years old, he (father) passed away from a heart attack. Mother ended up selling all of those great horses except for one. She didn’t know what else to do.” After watching barrel racing competition at a rodeo in Shreveport, Martha realized that being a barrel racer was her dream. “This is where I belong. I went home and got my dad’s roping saddle out, put one barrel in the middle of my grandmother’s meadow and decided I was going to be a barrel racer.” Not long after that, a friend who had purchased a 3-year-old from of her father’s stud horse called to see if she wanted to ride him in competition. Martha didn’t have a trailer, and she didn’t have a car, but her mother had an old Buick with 300,000 miles on it.
