Martha Jane Taylor was born in 1830 in Kentucky. She was the daughter of Joshua F Taylor and Patsy Martha Higgins. Many records exist for individuals who could be Martha Jane including a marriage to a William G. Dubord and a Benjamin King. Records also exist for deaths and burials for a Martha J. Sloan and a Martha Jane Ping. However, when comparing dates and census records a clear and reasonably definable picture of her potential live does not emerge. Therefore rather than speculate we leave her at birth in 1830 in Kentucky, likely Pulaski County.
