Martha was the oldest of nine children born to William Hacking and Ann Pearson Hacking. The 1841 England Census in Burton, Westmorland, England, Martha is listed as a 10 year-old female living in the household of William (40) a School Master. Other household members were Ann (30), Henry H. (8), Robert (5), Ann (3) and Elizabeth (8 months). They were all born in Westmorland County. Other children born to the family were James (1836 - 1837), Mary (1843 - 1843), William (1845 - 1850), and John Graham Hacking (1847 - 1924).
The family immigrated to the United States in 1849 through New Orleans with their widowed mother Ann, daughters Martha, Ann, and Elizabeth; and sons Henry H., Robert G, William, and infant John Graham. They settled around the Cincinnati, Ohio where several of the family, including Martha became teachers. In December 1864 she married John C. Dexter. By the 1900 Census the couple was living in St. Louis along with her widowed sister Elizabeth Judd. They had no children.
One thing was very apparent was that the women in this family seemed to age slower than most women since census and vital records underestimate the year of the birth or age.
