She is the daughter of Thomas Green Smith and Elizabeth Sissell (Cecil). Martha actually had more children than stated above. At least one unnamed infant is buried in Tunnel Cemetery, Warren Twp., Washington Co., OH. Martha passed away in Wichita, Sedgwick Co., KS where her daughter was living at the time. The parents of Martha actually live out their life in Washington Co., OH and brother Lenox Smith died in Grant, Jackson Co., WV.
