    "Mrs. Martha Gerrish, daughter of Judge Francis Foxcroft and Elizabeth Danforth, his wife, was born in Boston, probably March 26, 1689, and was married to Benjamin Gerrish, a merchant of Boston in 1716. She was a woman of remarkable piety. tutor Henry Flynt, in his diary, now property of Harvard Library, mentions the profitable conversations held with Mrs. Gerrish on religious subjects, and under date of April 15, 1736, writes an eulogy on her."
