Memoirs of John Martyn and of Thomas Martyn: Professors of Botany in the University of Cambridge is a historical book written by George Cornelius Gorham in 1830. The book is a biographical account of two brothers, John Martyn and Thomas Martyn, who were both professors of botany at the University of Cambridge in the 18th century.
