General Notes: Husband - Samuel W. Marsh

---

He was a boy of fifteen at the time of his father's last trip as a river pilot. To his son's eager request that he might accompany him, Mr. Marsh returned a refusal, fearing that the lad might become attached to that mode of life and not thinking it best for him to pursue it. The result was that the son turned his attention to the coal industry and for over twenty-two years was employed by the Berwin-White Coal Company, filling, for seventeen of these years, the position of engineer at the power-house at Herminie. He saw the first coal taken from the Herminie mine. Always a staunch adherent of the Republican party, Mr. Marsh for many years took an active interest in local politics, and beginning in 1915 served as justice of the peace. He was a member of the United Presbyterian church, occupying a seat on the board of trustees.
