• Baptism: Martha was baptized on 5 May 1815 at First Congregational Church, Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut. "Martha wife of Abr'm Holley, Adult aged -."²
• Church Affiliation: As of 5 May 1815, Martha was affiliated with First Congregational Church, Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut,"Admissions in the church: Martha, wife of Abra'm Holley."²
• Church Affiliation*: As of before 1820, Martha was affiliated with First Congregational Church, Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut,In an undated (pre-1828) list of female members, "Martha, wife Abraham Holly."²
• Census*: Martha appeared on the census of 1830 at Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut, as Widow Martha Holly, with 1 female 40-50, and 1 female 70-80. Abraham had died in 1828. Neighbors Widow Lydia Weed, Widow Charlotte Bishop, Henry Waterbury, Thaddeus Bell, Moses Mathers, Widow Elizabeth Brown.³
• Death*: Martha died between 1830 and 1836, Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut. Perhaps she died in this time period, because she did not apply for Abraham's pension in 1836 when pensions were extended to widows who were married before or during the soldier's service.
• Census: Martha appeared on the census of 14 November 1850 at Darien, Fairfield County, Connecticut, as age 75 female in the household of Isaac Wardwell, age 29, farmer, with Isaac's wife Mary, children Adelade and Jacob, and J. H. Scofield, Shoemaker. I don't think this is the same Martha, because Abraham's wife had Isaac in 1780, when this woman would have been 5 years old. This Martha is still alive in 1860, same household, age 85. There is a death in the Darien Town Records 29 Sep 1860, for Martha Holly, age 85, born in New Canaan, Residence Darien, widowed, cause of death Old Age. The same death is recorded in the Darien First Congregational Church records.⁴

One male 16-25, 2 females under 10, one female 16-25. Neighbors are Eben'r Waterbury, Joseph Smith, Cary Bell. This seems to be the same Isaac who is in New Canaan in 1810, because in 1810 he is next to Deodate Waterbury and Jos. Smith Jr. Almost all the Hollys in the 1800 Stamford census are spelled Hawley. There were 3 Isaacs enumerated in Stamford that year.

The family had for several generations owned a large tract of land in that section, lying partly in Poundridge. On May 23, 1827, he married Maria Rodgers, of Patterson, Putnam County, a niece of Benjamin Isaacs, of Bedford, and a member of his family. For several years after his marriage he occupied a part of his father's property in the town of Poundridge, and Benjamin I. Ambler was born there on July 27, 1830. His only brother, Joseph Augustus, was born in 1833 and died in infancy. In 1835, after the death of Judge Isaacs, for who he was named, his father bought the Isaacs farm in Bedford village, and resided there till his death, on August 15, 1876. The house, which stands fronting "The Green," is supposed to have been the first one erected in the village after the place was burned in 1779. It was long occupied by Benjamin Isaacs, who was town clerk from 1804 to 1831, and many years county judge, and has been the home of the present owner [Benjamin Isaacs Ambler] for fifty-one years.

• Biography*: 1886: He "received his education under the care of Samuel L.

In 1853 he entered the mercantile business in Bedford, in partnership with the late Hezekiah D. Robertson, under the firm-name of Ambler & Robertson. In 1858 the partnership was dissolved and he continued the business until 1863, since which time his occupation has been that of a farmer.
  
  In his earlier life Mr. Ambler took an active interest in politics, and in 1854 was elected supervisor, being the second Democrat in many years to achieve that distinction. He was again chosen to that office in 1862. From 1853 to 1863 he was postmaster of Bedford, and was deputy sheriff from 1852 to 1855. In the fall of 1858 he was the candidate of the Democratic party for sheriff, but though he ran largely ahead of his ticket, he was defeated by a small majority. He was the president of the board of trustees of the Bedford Female Institute for some fifteen years, during the period when it was most successful. Mr. Ambler is a gentleman of dignified and courteous address, careful and accurate in business matters, of genial temperament and kind disposition. He was married, on September 23, 1863, to Miss Anna M. Lounsbery, daughter of James Lounsbery, of Bedford. He has no children."¹
