The Martha who married Isaac Tubbs was the widow of Simon DeWolf at the time of that marriage. Martha DeWolf was appointed administrix of his estate on 17 Feb 1706/7; sureties were Abraham Brunson and John Smith of Lyme. (TAG at https://www.americanancestors.org/DB283/i/11841/216/23569848 )

According to Donald Lines Jacobus, Martha Smith, daughter of John Smith of Lyme, married Isaac Tubbs. (See source cited in John Smith's profile.)

Maybe there was more than one Martha Smith who married an Isaac Tubbs. John Smith's daughter was born in 1686 and was married before 1710, so it is likely that her husband was born around 1680 or later.

There is a record in 1708 of a release signed by Isaac Tubs of "Lime" and his wife Martha Tubs, "relict of Simon DeWolfe of Lime, deceased." See https://www.americanancestors.org/databases/american-genealogist-the/image/?volumeId=11841&pageName=217&rId=134771587
