Two months after Joseph Smith organized what was then called the Church of Christ at a Fayette, New York farm, Martha Ann Gardner was born in Boston, the second child and first daughter of second-generation Bostonians, Edward and Catherine Geyer Tuttle. In 1842, just after Martha's twelfth birthday, her parents joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, then headquartered in Nauvoo, Illinois.
