General Notes: Husband - Robert Marshall

---

He was born on the Marshall homestead in South Mahoning township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. He was thirteen years old when his father died, and his brother reared him to manhood on the farm, sending him to the local schools. When he attained his majority he obtained eighty acres of land from his father's estate, and bought seventy-six acres more of the estate, and on this property carried on general farming and stock raising. In addition he owned forty-three acres. His life was spent on the farm where he was born, and there he died, when only fifty-four years old, from the effects of typhoid fever. His remains were interred in the cemetery at Smicksburg. For many years he served the Presbyterian Church as an elder, and was one of its most valued members. A Republican from the formation of the party, he gave it his support, but did not aspire for public office aside from that of school director, for he was exceedingly domestic in his tastes, and preferred to give his time and attention to his private affairs and his family. He was noted for his temperate habits, and his upright, honorable methods of doing business. While he was not a young man when the Civil war broke out, he would have liked to serve his country as a soldier, had his strength permitted, but as it was he gave the Union loyal support in every way he could, and his contributions to the cause were exceedingly liberal.
His support of general morality was strong and courageous, for he never had any sympathy with wrong-doing, believing that if men controlled their habits they would not be led into breaking laws both human and divine. Like other members of his family he believed in and advocated temperance upon every occasion, and the efforts of such men as these bore remarkable fruit, for South Mahoning township was one of the most law-abiding communities in the State.
