Biography

Maria was born on 16 Apr 1771, probably in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.^[1] She is the daughter of Heinrich Oberholtzer Martin (1742–1819) and Barbara (Zimmerman) Martin (1744–1829).^[1]

Mary appears with her husband and children in the Mennonite church records of Lancaster County.^[1] As their oldest child was born in 1795, it's reasonable to estimate their marriage date at 1794.
