It certainly would have made it easier for others to aid you, if you had taken the time to mention that Fauguier County and Louisa Country are in the state of Virginia. After I look up that information, the search was far easier. Using the LDS FamlySearch website I found two related records, but the conflict with the information you provided. Marcus RUSSELL Marriage: 8 Nov 1827, Louisa, Virginia Spouse: Sarah GREEN The above agrees with your message, but the following does not! Celia Jane RUSSELL Marriage: 9 Jan 1830, Fauguier, Virginia Spouse: Thomas M. LOMAX The names agree with your message. But according to this record Celia Jane married less than 3 YEARS after her FATHER??? It appears Celia may be Marcus's sister, not his daughter! For more research, try the LDS FamilySearch site.
