The Choctaw Advisory Board opposed inclusion of the Texas Choctaw as well as the Jena Choctaws in Louisiana, as they had both lived primarily outside of the Choctaw Nation.

The brothers entered the Confederate Army there when the Civil War broke out.

Martin became a leader among the Choctaw-Chickasaws in Texas, while keeping close to his Cherokee relatives. Martin Thompson went on to continue that leadership role until his death in 1946.
