Hi Davis County, IA researchers, I am now trying to find out more about Elizabeth Marcus and her ancestors. She was probably born around or after 1831. My g-gf was Delmore D Boal (b. 1851 in Elmwood, Knox Co, IL) m. 1881in Davis Co, IA Venda Small (granddaughter of John Small b. 1812, and Nancy Kilgore b. 1807 - first wife of Davis Co, IA) b. 1857 was the daughter of Daniel Small b. 1831, in IN, who was in the Civil War in Youngs Point, LA where he died of Small Pox in 1863. According to my recently located marriage record of Delmore Boal and Venda Small -her parents were Daniel Small b. 1831 d. 1863 m. abt 1856 and Elizabeth Marcus.Elizabeth Marcus may have remarried a man named Ferguson after Daniel Small's death. She moved to MO after Daniel Small's death. I think I may have seen some postings on this listserv for MARCUS in the past so I am hopeful that whomever posted is still reading msgs here or that someone else on the listserv can help. Thank you.
