I would love any information you have on Martha. I have often wondered what happened to her. My email is mcmahonsteve@nuwavenet.com. For forty-two years I have been one of that group who have been tracking down information on Daniel B. McMahon, Prscilla East and their descendents. I suspect we will never achieve the Holy Grail of our search, i.e, who were Daniel's parents? I don't know how much information you want or already have on the family. It is interesting that Martha is buried in the Rock Prairie Cemetery. I love to go visit those cemeteries where the McMahon's are buried. My favorite is the Zion Cemetery outside Iola. In 1852 Daniel McMahon and Thomas Neeley were two of the founders of Zion Methodist Church. Originally, it was by the cemetery, but as the community moved East to be closer to the railroad the church moved with it, and is now in Iola. William and James' brother, John Henry McMahon, is my second great-grandfather. After the Civil War he settled in Robertson Couny, and in 1908 his son moved to Kaufman County, Texas, where I am now.
