Baby Martha was the only biological sister to John H. "DOC" Holliday. She was older & died before he was born. She may have died of TB, like her brother & her Mom who had TB also. I came across her grave in search of Doc's & his Dad's graves (Thought there is no evidence to prove this, Doc's remains are believed by some to have been transferred from Glenwood Springs, CO back home to Griffin GA by his father, years after he died).

You can read about Doc's burial place @ www.tombstonetimes.com/stories/where.html

Father: Major Henry Holliday - Her father was a pharmacist, planter, lawyer, and major for the Confederate Army. He lived in Augusta where he served as Mayor, the Secretary of the County Agricultural Society, a Member of the Masonic Lodge, the Secretary of the Confederate Veterans Camp.
