Robert Marshall
| Anecdote* | "The fine property on which this gentleman lives has been brought to its present condition by his own efforts, he having struck the first blow with the woodman's ax, and removed from the entire two hundred acres the heavy timber and underbrush which once covered it. It has been so thoroughly improved by wise methods that it is now one of the model farms of Barry County and in respect to its buildings also ranks with the best. A fine large farmhouse, ample barns, granaries and sheds, and various adornments appropriate to the rural scene, are noted by the passing traveler and duly admired. Mr. Marshall prosecutes his calling with excellent judgment, as is testified to by his financial solidity and good repute among his associates. The parents of Mr. Marshall were Joshua and Margaret (Armstrong) Marshall, the former of whom was born in Ireland, and upon coming to America first made his home in Maryland. About the beginning of the present century he removed to New York, where he continued his farm work until his death in 1829. Mrs. Marshall was born in Maryland and died in this State in 1857. Their children were four in number, Robert the youngest being the only one now living. He was born in Ontario County, N.Y., September 15, 1819, and until he was eighteen years old lived on the old homestead. The property was then sold and another farm purchased, where he remained with his mother until 1840. In the meantime he had studied in the district schools, gaining a fair knowledge of the branches taught, and at home learned how to carry on a farm and manage the business connected therewith. A brother of young Marshall had come to Michigan during the ‘30s and hither Robert came to prospect for a home. Crossing the lakes to Detroit he made his way to what is now known as Hickory Corners, Barry County, where he remained a few weeks, and near which he purchased property. After his short sojourn he returned to his native State, and in the spring of 1842 made a permanent removal and established his home where he is yet living. The country was thinly settled, Indians still lingered in the neighborhood and wild game was plentiful. Roads were few and no direct route was taken, travelers passing in a round-about way in accordance with the locations of scattered dwellings. Mr. Marshall used oxen entirely in the early development of his land. He built a large log house in which he lived for more than twenty-five years, finally replacing it with a substantial frame dwelling. For some years he fed cattle quite extensively and at all times he tilled the soil energetically. In his early manhood Mr. Marshall married Miss Sarah Phillips, a native of the Empire State, whose wedded life extended from the spring of 1842 to July, 1846, when death took her. Of this union there are no living children. In 1848 Mr. Marshall was again married, his bride being Miss Sarah Harkness, likewise a native of New York. The happy couple are the parents of seven sons and daughters – Susan, wife of Alvah Beebe, now living in Nashville; William H., who farms the homestead; Mary E., wife of Llewellyn Noble, a farmer in Barry Township; Charles, at home; Frances, wife of Gilbert Searles, who tills the soil in Barry Township; Nettie, who married Charles Doyle and lives in Detroit; and Homer, still at home. The first Presidential ballot of Mr. Marshall was cast for Martin Van Buren and he has never swerved in his allegiance to the Democratic Party. During four terms he served as Township Supervisor and for several years he was Highway Commissioner, and as a servant of the public he did his best to secure its interests. So careful has Mr. Marshall been to meet every obligation that he has never been dunned for a debt, and he has never asked legal advise, or sued or been sued. His private character is irreproachable and he is highly respected by all who enjoy his acquaintance. He and his estimable wife bestowed careful attention upon the manners and morals of their children, and have been well repaid for their loving care by seeing them assume honorable places in society."
