First married Fidelia Arnold, daughter of Rev Thomas Arnold and Rebekah LaDow, before 1848, probably in PA or NY. They had 4 known children: George F "Frank" Marlett (1848-1912), Francis "Fanny" Lorrisa Marlett Gage (1849-1877), Royal Norman Marlett (1851-1940), and Martha E Marlett Van Ransselaer (1853-abt1930).
Note: We believe that Fidelia Arnold Marlett died sometime between 1860 and 1861, but have been unable to locate documentation to support in either PA or NY...research is continuing on this by a number of different family researchers.
