The Marshal not only upheld the law, their also performed other dutys for their State, like land sales, took census, and many other services for the publics good. The men of this list all performed their dutys will. This List is to help families find other members of their family. Many who look over this list may find a member of the family and never knew they had a Marshal in the family. I will add information to the names as it becomes available, so you should check back from time to time. If you have a question, you can E. mail me at: dsegelquist1@cox.net

Question: How come there is so many Marshals?
