The 1880 U.S. Census record appears to contain one minor error, which is that Martha would not have been 58 years old until October 1880.
Martha is believed to have died in 1885 and is believed to be buried at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church Cemetery in Martin (Franklin County), Georgia. This uncertainty is largely due to her actual name being absent from the tombstone and a presumed discrepancy in her birth date (1815 is closer to her husband's birth date than hers).5)
