As a child she moved with her family to Pottawattamie County, Iowa, living first in Kanesville (Council Bluffs), then Center Township and later in Knox Township near the now-vanished village of Newtown. Martha was the mother of a son, Alva Curtis Davis, who was born in July 1866 or 1867. Four years later, on 18 March 1871, she married William J. Malcom. He was born 1 July 1838 in Michigan, the son of Horatio and Lucina May (Streeter) Malcom. William and Martha had four children: Frank (1872-1877), John J. (1873-1953), Augusta (1875-1879), and Leroy (1876-1877). William died between 1877 and 1880. Some family members have said that he had tuberculosis. It is thought that William, Frank, Augusta, and Leroy are buried in the cemetery at Newtown. There are no markers for their graves. After William's death she resided with his father Horatio and her two surviving sons, Alva Davis and John Malcom, in Knox Township. In 1882 she moved with her mother and some of her brothers and sisters to Woodbury County, where she purchased land in Little Sioux Township. Martha married Addison F. Brown on 7 April 1884 in Woodbury County. Descendants say he took a load of hogs into town and was never seen again. Martha continued to live in Woodbury County until her death on 20 May 1910. She is buried in Bethel Cemetery, Peiro. Her grave has no marker.
