Yes, she was, along with countless other non-famous Marthas nn Pattys. But she wasn't exactly a good namesake either, in that next to nothing is known of her other than that she died young because her body couldn't take the stress of constant child-bearing.

I mainly associate her with being played by a young Gwyneth Paltrow in "Jefferson in Paris"Not saying she's the greatest namesake ever, but better than the one Starla mentioned.
