According to Martin Paup, a grandson and namesake, Martin was born in York County, PA and about 1860 was indentured as a servant for five years to a farmer who was cruel to him. After a fight with the farmer he ran away and was hunted as a fugitive. He joined the infantry in 1863 under an assumed name, and then re-enlisted in 1864 in the cavalry. After the war, about 1868-69 he went overland by ox train to San Francisco and then north by boat to Puget Sound. In 1870 he signed on as engine room fireman on the "Politkofsky," an originally-Russian gun boat converted to a tow boat and worked his way up to chief engineer.

He worked in the Alaskan gold fields, where he found no gold, but did well by hauling potatoes for other miners. Returning in 1874, and while enroute by boat from Victoria, BC to Seattle, he noticed a pretty "brown-haired girl" on the vessel and got himself introduced to her the next day. He returned to his previous job on the "Politkofsky," but kept up his romance from its base at Port Madison. In 1877 he and Ella McGroarty (whose father Patric had served in the 17th Wisconsin Infantry) were married in Seattle, but made their home in Port Madison. In 1887 he "left the sea." He bought property on Bainbridge Island in 1894, and in 1895 moved his family to Seattle, where he carried the flag in many veterans' parades almost up to the time of his death.
