Martha is the daughter of Hiram Richardson and Catherine Reed, born in 1839. She married Horatio Tripp on 1 September 1855 in Michigan.
I cannot find a source for her death. She has a Memorial at Find A Grave that can't find her date of death (not super sure why there's a Memorial then, but ..) The last record for her appears to be the 1870 Census, so after then, before 1880.
