Her childhood and young womanhood was spent near her birthplace and she was married there in 1870 to Hiram H. Hand. She was the fourth of seven children born to William T. Scott, all of whom grew to maturity and all of whom made their homes for a time in Holton. Wallace W. was the first to pass to the next world. Then the mother of this family was taken, then the father. Dr. John T. Scott died next, then Mrs. Mary L. Beck and now Martha is gone. Mrs. Hand arrived at womanhood during the years of the Civil war and for a number of years before her marriage she taught in the same school house where she had received the elements of her education. She came to Kansas in 1870 and lived for a time in Ottawa, where her husband was engaged in newspaper work. One daughter, Bessie, was born in 1871, and survives her. Another daughter born two years later died in infancy. After Mrs. Hand came with her little daughter to live with her parents in Holton she with her sister-in-law now Mrs. Burrell engaged in the millinery which they conducted successfully for a time. Her mother's failing health caused Mrs. Hand to give up her business and devote all her time in caring for the invalid and taking care of household affairs. For years she was tender and devoted nurse and after her mother's death, she devoted herself with equal care to her father in his declining years. Since his death in 1896, Mrs. Hand has been a member of the household of her daughter.

She was the first state regent of the Daughters of the American Revolution of Kansas .... Some days before Mrs. Hand was stricken, her daughter had gone to the hospital to undergo a minor surgery operation. She was taken home but was still confined to her bed when her mother's attack came. She was not able to accompany the body to Holton and Mr. Scott remained in Los Angeles with her ....
