Posted on: Warren County, Ia Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ia/Warren/1263 Surname: Marsh, Smith ------------------------- My gggrandfather Abraham Marsh (Lucinda Ethridge) relocated to Warren County during the Civil War (from Dallas County, Missouri) because they had Union sympathies. He was accompanied by Jesse Marsh, who I believe to be his father. I would like to prove this. After the war Abraham and his wife/children moved back to Missouri because they owned land there and Lucinda's family was there. Jesse, however, remained in Warren County because he married a local, Martha A. Smith. He died there in 1871. I believe that the following Warren County records might exist that prove Jesse is Abraham's father: - Marriage record of Jesse and Martha (I know I can get this from the county). - Will of Jesse Marsh - Obituary of Jesse Marsh (Record-Herald & Indianola) Are there any Warren County Marshes out there??? Would love to know the answers! Thanks
