Would love to get those obits from you, I don't think it is the William I am looking for but want to check him out. I have been in contact with some new found distant cousins and can add him to the family tree. There were two Marlin brothers, Nathaniel and Charles that came out from NJ to IN in the early 1800's. William seems to be a pretty popular name, my Great Grandfather and one of his son's was a William, as well as several cousins. Where this particular William fits in I don't know. Thanks again, Rick
