Daniel Marshall, 1801-1872 Son of Aaron Marshall 1750-1827
Third Generation Daniel Marshall, born April 11, 1801. near Pughtown in Hancock County, West Virginia. Died 1872. Married Hannah Daniel, March 12, 1827, in what is now Carroll County, Ohio. Daniel and Hannah were both buried in Beach Grove Cemetery (Conn Graveyard) located about two miles from their Indian Run homestead. Separate monuments mark their graves. They had eight children.
In brief outline it appears that our great grandparents, Aaron and Sarah Marshall were Virginians of the later Colonial period, that they emigrated to Washington County, Pennsylvania and from there to Hancock County, West Virginia, and that our grandfather, Daniel Marshall, moved from Hancock County, West Virginia to Carroll County, Ohio and marrying Hannah Daniel, they lived, for a time, near Carrollton, the County seat of Carroll County, Ohio, where their five oldest children were born. Then the Daniel Marshall family moved to Perry County farm where the three youngest children were born.
Daniel and Hannah were typical pioneers. He was a hard working economical farmer, interested with his neighbors in promoting the growth and prosperity of the new community. Hannah devoted her time to the care of the home, and the rearing of the children, and in addition operated a hand loom, making material for clothing and bedding for the family. Some of the products of the hand loom were sold. They have left us a priceless heritage.
October 2, 1831, Daniel purchased a farm of one hundred and sixty acres, in what was then Columbiana County, Ohio, but now included in Carroll County. Consideration $400.00. The deed, transcribed from Columbiana County, is recorded in the deed records of Carroll County, Vol. 56, page 115. Two children, Miriam and Steward were born on that farm.
April 10, 1837, Daniel purchased a farm of one hundred and sixty acres in Monroe Township, Perry County, Ohio from the United States of America pursuant to an Act of the Congress of the United States, U.S. Laws, Vol. 6, page 486, entitled “An Act Making further provision for the sale of the public lands.” Subject to sale at Zanesville, Ohio.
The deed was signed by Martin Van Buren, President, by his secretary and is recorded in the Deed Records of Muskingum County at Zanesville, Volume 161, page 230, and in the Deed Records of Perry County, at New Lexington February 3, 1875, Volume 1, page 100. Indian Run, a branch of the West Branch of Sunday Creek, flows through the farm. A large log cabin was built on the banks of Indian Run.
In due course of time, a room was added to the Indian Run Log Cabin, large enough to accommodate a hand loom. Daniel prospered and in 1859 built a frame residence across the road from the log cabin. At the time of his death in 1872, he owned three hundred and sixty acres, all in one tract including the original homestead. The surface of the original homestead has been sold but the mineral rights are still held in the family, being owned by the next of kin of the youngest child, Thomas Marshall.
The descendants of Hannah and Daniel took part in wars as follows: Civil War, three; World War I, seven; World War II, forty. In-laws in three wars, Eleven, Total, Sixty-one as reported herein.

Please Send Links and Information on Aaron Marshall
I am looking for people interested in the genealogy of Aaron Marshall, to find family histories or documents. George Sidney Marshall wrote “The Daniel Marshall Family with a Sketch of the Aaron Marshall Family”. He wrote a letter stating that he had sent sixty-six letters requesting a discovery of errors for a correction page. My Dad received one of the books that I have now.
I would like to know about a book titled “F. C. Marshall - Aaron”. from the
Library of Congress Archives.There could be other histories written that gives more information than I have. There must be hundreds of people descending from Aaron that have no information on their ancestors. Hopefully, working together, more information will be discovered.
Send me an E-Mail letter if you have information on this Marshall line, or Aaron Marshall is your ancestor.
