She was an Employed by Stemmer - Tobacco Factory (1910.)3 After her divorce from Crawford, Martha Ellen married Edward Whiteman (17 May 1888 in Clark County, Indiana). Edward Whiteman had been previously married to Mary Elizabeth Roark. Martha and Edward had four children of their own. After Edward died on 3 Feb 1899, Martha Ellen put the four children from her marriage to Edward into the New Albany Orphanage. A note in the orphanage records states that the four children were related to Martha's brother, Thomas Wright of Henry County, Kentucky, and that they were also related to Walter Whiteman of New Albany, Floyd County, Indiana. Orphanage records also state that the oldest child, Arthur Thomas Whiteman was a half-brother to Odus and Edgar Robertson. There is no record of her putting Odus and Edgar into the orphanage. (They may have gone back to live with their father.) Martha Ellen removed her four children from the orphanage on 30 May 1903. She married John Murdock on 13 Feb 1904 in Floyd County, Indiana. She is listed as Ellen Whiteman on her death certificate.
