Martinot, a French immigrant who founded a successful wholesale firm dealing in imported silk products.  William Martinot worked for his father's firm and had served in the American Civil War and later as a New York City police detective who once brought charges of corruption against a NYPD police captain.  Her mother was said to be of the family that once owned Randall's Island in Manhattan.  Before taking to the stage at 15, Martinot was educated at area public schools and the Ursuline Convent in New Rochelle, New York.  Some accounts have her birth name as Sally Martin or Sally Eagan, the daughter of an Irish-American single mother who worked hard to ensure her a good education.  In March 1894 Martinot stated to the press that, though she would have been proud to have been raised under such a circumstance, she in fact was the daughter of Mary and William Alexander Martinot.

The California Birth Index (CABI) is a database compiled by the California Office of Health Information and Research.  The index contains birth records of all registered births in California between 1905 and 1995.  Each record is an abstract of a person's birth certificate, including date of birth, full name, county of birth, gender, and mother's maiden name.  People who have been adopted are sometimes listed by their birth name, sometimes listed by their adopted name, sometimes by both and sometimes not listed at all.  The CABI is considered a valuable genealogy tool but is also criticized for privacy issues.  California began statewide civil registration of births on July 1, 1905.  Earlier birth records may exist in the county where the birth took place or at the church where a baptism took place.
