Biography

Martha Ellsworth was born October 1, 1680 at Windsor, Hartford County, Connecticut to Josiah and Martha Gaylord Ellsworth. She married Samuel Stiles December 1, 1701 at Windsor and their children were: Martha, Samuel Jr. and Elizabeth. After Samuel died, Martha married George Norton May 14, 1719. I don't show them having any children. George died in 1742 and Martha died in May 1751 at Windsor. She's thought to be buried in that area, possibly at the Old Center Cemetery in Suffield, Hartford County, Connecticut, where her second husband is buried.
