Daughter of Simon & Ruth (Hall) Harwood.
Wife of Alexander Martin.
Mother of George, Amasa (J. Westlake & Julia Ann Garfield), Elizabeth L. (Joseph W. Davis), B. Franklin, Addison, Martha, & Alexander Dwight (Harriet Huntington) Martin.

From Ontario County Times 28 July 1875

North Bloomfield, N. Y. - This day the last tribute of respect was paid to the remains of Mrs. Alexander Martin, who departed from life Wednesday last. The services were conducted by Rev. Hamilton Squires, assisted by Rev's. S. A. Freeman and L. C. Brown of Honeoye Falls, thus practicing the beauties of the saying "behold how beautiful for brethren to dwell together in unity." Mrs. Martin was one of those few who lived to make this world a world of sunshine, and had journeyed in its pleasant ways more than seventy-five years. Upwards of fifty-two years she was the happy wife of Alexander Martin, who is left, with five children and numerous grandchildren, to mourn her departure. May the consoling words "As in Adam all die even so in Christ shall all be made alive," be unto them "a very present help in time of need." For more than a year she has been unwell, when finally death by dropsy came to her relief. She leaves a very large circle of friends to mourn her departure. Her acquaintances were many and to know her was to love her.
