Hester Duckworth married Thomas Martin. A different woman named Hester Roundtree married a man most often referred to as Thomas Peyton Martin. The two women and their husbands have gotten SO mixed up for so long now that they are even listed as siblings with the same dates as if they were twins, on Find-a-Grave.

This site has the genealogy of Hester Roundtree who was not a Duckworth. So the photo on this profile for the Thomas Martin who was married to Hester Roundtree is not the correct gravestone for the husband of Hester Duckworth.

I doubt the two Hesters had the exact same birth and death dates but every site seems to use what is on Hester Roundtree's gravestone, so I think Hester Duckworth's dates have been lost over time...unless someone has a photo of her actual gravestone.

I don't know which of the Thomas Martin's married the Campbell wife.
