Researcher's Notes
Sources differ regarding her date of death: Another date given is 1813. Location is the same.
- (Joseph Martin married his second wife, Susannah Graves on Feb 24, 1784 after the death of Sarah Lucas. Historians say that she died of smallpox shortly after the birth of her daughter Sarah, "Sally" Martin Hughes. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/200301411/sarah-sally-martin. A date of death of 1813 for Sarah Lucas is highly doubtful. Joseph Martin and Sarah Lucas were not divorced. Joseph was widowed.) -Hans Nielsen
