Hello, cousins. I am also descended from Martha Coit. According to a genealogy of the Savage family that I found at the Godfrey Library in Middletown, CT, after the death of her first husband, Hugh Mould, Martha moved to Middletown, where she died April 14, 1730. She had remarried, to Nathaniel White, who was the father-in-law of two of her daughters. So, I'd look in Middletown, under the name White, for her grave. The genealogy was titled "The New England Ancestry of Albert Wilcox Savage, Jr." Martha's daughter Christian married William Savage.
Martha's parents were John Coit and Mary Jenners, who were perhaps originally from Wales. After living in Dorchester, Salem, and Gloucester,they eventually settled in New London, CT, where John was a shipbuilder. His son Joseph, and his sons-in-law John Stevens and Hugh Mould (Martha's husband) were in business with him. In New London, there is still a street today named Coit Street, at the site of their shipyard.
