My son's partner has the notorious Australian convict Ann Marsh in her tree; the oldest Marsh ancestor we know of is John Marsh b 1730. This is the Marsh family from Buckland Brewer.The other families in her tree from Devon are Andrew, Getton, Morrice, Peckard and Voscombe.

Please let me know if you find any Marshes in Essex/London in the nineteenth century - or in Canterbury in the 1800's.  It is all fascinating stuff!

I am trying to trace my Devon ggrandfather Henry Marsh & wife Elizabeth who lived in South Molton.I would love to take their line further back or see how they are related to the other Marshes living in South Molton & Barnstaple at that time Their two sons , Edward & John Legg , emigrated to South Africa and Mauritius somewhere between the 1851 & 1861 English Censuses, after the death of their father somewhere in that time.. The two sons are not a problem but their Devon parents are.  I have not been able to trace Henry's baptism (born 1815 in Whitchurch) so don't know his parents names or his wife's maiden name (she was born 1816 in Bishop's Tawton)

Congratulations Gus!  Alas, I've been stuck at "the wall" for over a decade.  My MARSH ancestor is Louis MARSH, an African-American slave born 1830/1 in GA and emancipated in LA.  His parents were born in VA c. 1805.  If anyone researching their European ancestry had MARSH family in GA or LA who may have been slaveholders, I would love to exchange information.

I finally broke down my brick wall Isaac Marsh in LeRoy, Genesee, New York. I am now researching in Braintree, Essex, England 1560-1650.

I'm looking for additional information (and descendants) of Lt. Alexander MARSH of Braintree, MA (b 1628 somewhere in UK?, d 1698 Braintree, MA). He is my brick wall on this line. My MARSH line starting with Alexander were located in Braintree, MA (1650s-1770s); Rockingham, VT (1770s-1820s); Tompkins Co (1820s), NY; Allegany Co, NY (1820s-1850s); then moved to Michigan in 1850s

I am trying to find out more about my father's ancestors who came from Devon, U.K. They are reputed to have come from South Molten or Barnstaple. From there two brothers emigrated, one to South Africa and the other to Mauritius where he was a professor of English at Curepipe University.
