Evelyn, Thank you for your posting.I'm a descendant of Marquis and his first wife Martha.I knew the general outline of his wives and children; it was very thoughtful of him to wait a full five months after Martha's death before he remarried. Your posting adds many details such as nicknames. I do think there is one typo.John G. moved to Benton County not Penton.Also John and Mollie had a daughter, but divorced when she was still very young.Much later John remarried and had another daughter.
I'm going to try to locate a copy of the book you mentioned.
