    What I do is set the Snippet to a JSON string representation(using Google’s GSON library) of any object which references or identifies the marker. When the marker is tapped, i use GSON to get my object back.

    String snippet = new Gson().toJson(myObject);
//use snippet with your overlay item

    for your onTap(int index) method:

    OverlayItem item = overlays.get(index);
MyObject myObject = new Gson().fromJson(item.getSnippet(), MyObject.class);

    This all assumes that you have an object you can serialize/deserialize

    GSON: http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/
