  • Notes 
    • Submitted via GEDCOM by Daniel Frederick Montgomery, CMS 2419, on 14 Jul 2004.

      Previously married to Benjamin Grubbs, they divorced in 1854.

      Martha was evidently illiterate as the marriage recorded in the courthouse records indicates she signed her "mark". The marriage was witnessed by Peter, Alex and George Airhart.
