It appears that Martha Atkins is the daughter of Joshua Atkins, Jr. and Abigail Dyer, not Martha Harding. See birth record that I posted. Martha Harding died in 1758. The record shows that Martha Atkins was born in 1763. There is no record of a Martha Atkins born to Joshua Atkins and Martha Harding. Parentage needs to be adjusted accordingly.
