Martin was a very kind and understanding husband and father. His wife Martha Ann was away from home a great deal caring for the sick and delivering babies to many homes in Scipio. Although she had eleven children of her own. Martin always urged her to go where she was needed, while he would get meals for the family, sing to them, tell them stories and tuck them into bed when she was away.
