William Marling/Marlin may be a Jr. There is a marriage record for a William Marlin to
Rachael Nevers, 15 May 1794 in Bourbon County, Kentucky.
There is also a marriage record for Jennings County, Indiana that may be the first
marriage for William. A William Marling was married on 26 November 1840 to Lucinda Thomas
in Jennings County. Perhaps the enumerator for the 1850 census erroneously listed the
birth location of the children as Kentucky vice Indiana (which is not uncommon).
Dont Know if this is the Elizabeth Lett you are looking for, but.....
Jennings County neighbors Jackson County on the east.
