Martha was born about 1575, possibly in Stanton St. John, Oxford, England. according to her marriage record in Stockton, Wiltshire, she was the daughter of John White, gentleman, of Stanton St. John. Martha's new husband was William Cooke, soon to become the vicar of Crediton, Devon. The rector of Stockton, where they were married, was John Terry, husband of Martha's sister, Mary.

Martha and William had seven children, all born in Crediton. William died in Crediton between February and April of 1615. Marftha remained a widow until sometime between 1620 and 1627, when she married a man named Moore. The will of her sister Mary Terry, dated 1637, names her sister Martha Moore as well as niece Elizabeth Walton. Martha was still living in 1649 when her brother John White, the Patriarch of Dorchester named her in his will. [3]
