In 1820 about two thirds of what is now eastern Grant County was Delaware
County and the
other half was Indian land.
In 1830 a little less that 2/3 of what is now eastern Grant County was Delaware
County,
This is from William Thondale and William Dollarhide's Map Guide to the U. S.
Federal Census 1790-1920
I think Grant County became it's own county in 1832. Perhaps your early
Marshalls
were buried in a part of the county that stayed Delaware County (I have no idea
where in Delaware County, Washington Twp is but it might be near the
Grant County line established in 1832 and since parents and grandparents were
alreadt buried there later generations chose to be buried there tii, even
though it was in
a different county.
