Josephine Sarah Marcus (born ca. 1861 - died December 19, 1944) was an American actress and professional dancer who became best known as the wife of famed Old West lawman and gambler Wyatt Earp. According to United States Census records, Marcus was born in the state of New York about 1861, although the exact date and city of her birth are not known. Marcus was known alternately by either "Josie" or "Sadie".

At the age of 18, Marcus and friend Dora Hirsh ran away to join a theatrical company, where the two were hired as dancers.[citation needed] As members of Paulina Markham's traveling theater company, Marcus and Hirsh travelled throughout the west, including Arizona
Territory. Records show that the Markham troupe reached Tombstone in December 1879, after which they headed north to Prescott.

Johnny Behan followed her, in order to ask her to marry him. Marcus declined, and he returned to Arizona. Marcus, however, soon returned to Tombstone, where she lived with a lawyer while working as a housekeeper for Behan and his ten year old son, Albert. This version of her return has been disputed, as some believe that she was really living with Behan all along after her return to Tombstone, while other versions indicate she was working as a prostitute with the lawyer acting as her pimp.

Josephine Sarah Marcus died on December 20, 1944 in Los Angeles, California; she was believed to be in her early 80s, perhaps 83. Her body was cremated and buried next to Wyatt's remains in Colma, California in the Marcus family plot at the Hills of Eternity Memorial Park. Her parents and brother are buried nearby.
