She and her daughter Sallie Gardner, together with her second husband Will Martin, and their four children set out by covered wagon to Mississippi. It is said that there were nine families from Cleveland County that moved to Mississippi together. The names of some of these families include the following: Dave Gardner and family; Hoyle, Elliott, London, and Falls It required many weeks to make the trip by wagon from North Carolina to Mississippi. They had to travel through South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama. Twenty days after the little band left Cleveland County, Will Martin was kicked by a horse and severely wounded. He died nine days later while in camp on O'Nooke River in Georgia and he was buried there in a Lutheran Cemetery. Before Dying he called his friend, Mr. Elliott, to his side and asked him to assist his wife Nancy in selecting a farm upon reaching Mississippi.
