Hi Listers,
I have just joined the list and this is my first message. I am resident in the UK and
would like to trace the Marsh family who emigrated to Washoe Nevada
in the mid 1870s.
I have found an entry for the 1880 census on
familysearch.org which gives the following
information.
George Marsh (shown as G L but should be G F) age 41 born England
Eliza Marsh (wife) age 33 born England
Margaret Marsh (daughter) age 12 born England
Kate Marsh(daughter age 9 born England
Harry Marsh (son) age 6 born England
Rose Marsh (daughter) age 3 Nevada
Francis Marsh (son) age 1 Nevada.
I have also found this family on the 1875 census and George is described as a labourer. He
is with his wife Eliza, his daughter Elizabeth aged 7 who was born in England (she does
not appear on 1880 census so presumably deceased?) C marsh (could be Kate, known as
Catherine) and H Marsh (Harry).
I believe they had another daughter Georgenia L Marsh who was born in Nevada in 1889.
If anyone can give me any further information I would be most grateful. In particular, the
death records of George and his wife Eliza. Would Eliza's death record show her maiden
name?
I am not familiar with US research at all so don't know if there are any websites
where I could check out this information myself.
Hope to hear from someone.
Lynda
