Daughter of Joseph Lewis & Rachel Fraker.

It is my opinion that the tombstone birth year is incorrect and that Martha was born in 1836. Martha's age was listed as 14 in the 1850 census and she married her first husband Francis Marion Small on August 08, 1852 in Greene County, Tennessee. It is far more likely that Martha was 16 on her wedding day and not 12.

Martha married second husband William Stuckey about 1871 and third husband Jacob K. Rosier on January 22, 1890 in Bates County, Missouri.
