Martha's father, Asa, was a Revolutionary War soldier who served under Col. William B. Whiting of the 17th Regiment in the Albany County Militia. Martha's family can be traced back to the Doten/Doty family who arrived on the Mayflower.
She and her husband Amon 'Amos' Armstrong were married in June 1804 in New York and had 10 known children all born in the New York area. Two of their children, Asa and Edward, died as young children.
There are conflicting stories as to where she died (New York or Pennsylvania). But it is thought she was buried in Hendersonville Cemetery, Hendersonville, PA, and a tombstone was erected in her and Amon's honor during the Armstrong Reunion in August 2015.
