Martha married Hugh Long at Gwennap in Cornwall on the 27th May 1751. He was the son of Hugh and Mary Long (maiden name unknown), and came from Gwennap.

The couple would have and raise their children in Gwennap.

Martha and Hugh would lose three of their children in their infancy, and another daughter, Catherine, died at age 16. This left 4 surviving children.

Martha's husband Hugh was a witness to the marriage of Henry Thomas and Margaret Veal in Gwennap on 26th December 1767. This record is interesting in that the other witness to the marriage was a Stephen Youren, a possible relation to Martha.

Hugh died and was buried in Gwennap on the 23rd July 1784, aged 55 years.
