• She traveled with her mother Mary, and two sisters, Elizabeth and Sarah.  After arriving to Utah, she eventually married Jonas Nuttal Beck, who her family traveled with in the Thomas E. Ricks Company in 1866.  As a returning missionary, Jonas drove a team of four mules, and his wagon had a company of six saints.  Among those was Mary Sugden and her three daughters, one of which was Martha. 

  Martha's autobiography, listed under her married surname "Beck," contains evidence regarding vital information for herself, her mother, and her sisters. It also provides a brief account of their immigration experience as part of the Thomas E. Ricks 1866 wagon train.
