Life

Martha Lynn Walden was a daughter of Charles Sparks Walden (1772–1833) and Sarah Walker (1783–1854), according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no date or place for her birth.1 On 19 April 1832 she married Elias Dubose; the Alabama marriage index records the bride as "Martha Waldin", and the tree places the wedding in Autauga County, Alabama, where her father died the following year.2 Elias had been born in Jefferson County, Georgia, in 1809.3 The tree names ten children of the marriage, among them Benjamin Franklin (died 1840), Issac Charles (1839–1906), Thomas Jefferson (1843–1909), James Elias (born 1847), Amos (born 1850) and Rufus Burleson (1851–1860).3 Her husband died on 18 October 1853 in Burleson County, Texas.3 Inference The family had therefore probably moved to Texas by the early 1850s, as her brother Thomas W. Walden had by 1850, but no census record of Martha is attached to her profile.4 The tree marks her as deceased but gives no date or place of death, and the marriage index entry is the only record attached to her.1
