Subject: Re: [MARSHALL] Earliest Marshall Ancestor
The earliest Marshall that I know about is a Thomas Marshall. His will is dated 1793 and probated 1794 in Culpeper County, Virginia I've searched for years to find who his parents were and where and when he was born but can find nothing beyond his will. I would appreciate any information. I am a descendant through his daughter Elizabeth who married Zachariah Petty.
Could it be that the Thomas Marshall who married Susannah Smoot returned to Culpeper County Virginia? I have a Thomas Marshalls will dated 1793 and in the will names his wife as "Zannah".

Subject: Re: [MARSHALL] Earliest Marshall Ancestor
The earliest Marshall that I know about is a Thomas Marshall. His will is dated 1793 and probated 1794 in Culpeper County, Virginia I've searched for years to find who his parents were and where and when he was born but can find nothing beyond his will. I would appreciate any information. I am a descendant through his daughter Elizabeth who married Zachariah Petty.
Could it be that the Thomas Marshall who married Susannah Smoot returned to Culpeper County Virginia? I have a Thomas Marshalls will dated 1793 and in the will names his wife as "Zannah".
