Also her husband Robert has a wife actually named Mary Ann Gatewood attached to him and she and this Martha were both born the same year. I think this Martha should be Mary Ann and that he didn't have a wife named Martha Gatewood.
Some Ancestry trees do have that he married twice - to Mary Ann Gatewood and Martha Harwood (1600–1659). I'm thinking this Martha has been confused with Martha Harwood but incorrectly given the Gatewood maiden name. ?
