• Notes

  [Paxton.FTW] 192 ROBERT MORRIS MARSHALL, b. on a U. S. vessel, on the coast of England, January 20, 1797, d. at Happy Creek, Warren County, Virginia., February 10, 1870,= January 20, 1819, his cousin, LUCY MARSHALL (232), b. August 15, 1796, d. December 24, 1844, at Happy Creek. Mr. Marshall was educated at Yale College, and was a gentleman of superior literary attainments. After living several years at "Mt. Morris," Fauquier County, Virginia., his father relinquished to him, as the oldest son, the Happy Creek estate, where he spent the life of a genial and hospitable Virginia gentleman. In politics he was a Whig, and in religion an Episcopalian. Too old to take up arms, he opposed secession; but when his State withdrew from the Union, his whole soul became enlisted in the cause. Four of his sons entered the Southern Army, and the only remaining one was in India. Mrs. Marshall was born and educated in Warrenton, Virginia. She was a lovely, pure and Christian woman.
