Marty was the 4th of 11 children of Amelia (Milly) Holden and Simon Holden Pearson. Her parents were first cousins. She never married. In 1850, she lived with her family in Hancock, MS. By 1860, they had moved to Greensburgh, LA and she appears there in the censuses of 1860, 1870 and 1880, living at home on the family farm. Marty's father served two terms as Sheriff in Greensburgh and was also a Mason.

Family records indicate Marty died on 16 Aug. 1889. Her burial place has not been verified but her father was buried in the Allen Cemetery in Greensburgh in 1887 and her mother was buried there in 1901. It is likely that Marty lies near them.
