Biography
Little is known of Sarah, the daughter of Joseph and Susannah Martin. Based on the ages of her children and the fact that she was married before 1755, she must have been born no later than 1738. She is named in her father's will: :"December 3, 1760 January 14, 1762 Will of Joseph Martin of Albemarle County, Virginia To my present wife, Ann Martin, .... All the rest of my estate to be divided between, Sarah Burrus, Mary Hammack, Susannah Martin, Ann Martin and Olive Martin. Son George Martin 8 pounds current money. Executors Isaac Davis Thomas Burrus" [1]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Sarah by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Sarah:

I have good reason to think that Justina (Burrus) Hord was actually the daughter of Sarah (Martin) Burrus. I would like to see matrilineal descendants of Sarah (through her older daughters), as well as matrilineal descendants of Sarah's sisters get their mitochondrial DNA tested. If a match is found between them & me, it would go a long way toward demonstrating the actual mother of Justina (Burrus) Hord.
My point though, is that I offer my mitochondrial result as a means of testing this hypothesis. Of course, I need another result for comparison.
