I am seeking connections with any of the Marshall family mentioned below. I
am hoping that this will help me find more information on William D. Burton
who married Mary Louise Marshall, daughter of E. Dormond Marshall and Eliza
C. Keen (daughter of General William C. Keen).

CENSUS data:
I was able to find my Marshall in the 1850 and 1860 census:

It appears that our E. Dormand Marshall had two brothers: Dorwin Marshall
and Edwin Marshall. The younger, Edwin stayed with E. D. Marshall through
1850. He married in 1850 and established his own household. Dorwin is also
from Vermont and also a river pilot. He also lived next door to E. D.
Marshall. They must be brothers. A search of the Vermont census data will
help to confirm this.
