Are you certain? She would have to be real danged old then.
Alberta Martin dies in May 2004. She was given a full Confederate military funeral. She married at a very young age to a very old veteran. He had a pension.
Positive-they actually made a movie about her. “Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All”. Donald Sutherland was one of the stars, Diane Lane was the other. It was made in 1994. From what I remember about the story was this: sometime in early 1900’s a young woman about 17 or 18 years old married a former confederate soldier who was in his 70’s. I don’t know how long they were married, I think he dies in the 1920’s but she lived until sometime in the 1990’s. And yes she was very old when she died.
