Maybe Martha Hoyt is an avenue for investigation? If that doesn't yield results, we could call her Martha Unknown for now. Thanks!
It is possible that Sarah was a second wife of the father Thomas. But the data is still very sketchy and completely unsourced.
So for now I am going to remove Sarah Hicks as mother again, because that is impossible.
So all that gives me pause. It seems there are a bit of data errors somewhere. Let me look at the other Martha, to see if anything else in common will fit.
