K., my John Marshall, my g-g grandfather was born in North Carolina on 15 March 1785. He moved to Putnam County, GA at an early age where on 4 February 1810, he married my g-g grandmother Rebecca Burt. He and Rebecca had one living son, my g-greatfather Pendleton Jones Marshall. Rebecca died at an early age and John later, 14 February 1815, married Elizabeth Wright, born 26 February 1796 in North Carolina. John died on 27 April 1839 and Elizabeth Wright Marshall died 15 September 1860. John and Elizabeth had 9 children. I have not yet been able to connect John Marshall with his family of origin in North Carolina, perhaps Ireland. There are simply so many John Marshalls that it , One of his descendants, also John Marshall, was a well known circuit rider preacher in Pike County, GA, and surrounding counties. Hope this information is helpful to you. Hayward Mayfield.
