From a story written by Josiah's son George Josiah Marsh, and presented on the web site WWW.ninetravelers.com/josiah.html
Josiah Marsh, belonged to the Bible Christian religion. He was married to my mother, Sally Powell, in 1826. Their first child was a girl, the only child they had except myself. My mother believed and worshiped with the Methodist persuasion. Differing in their religious views did not affect their happiness. They believed that if they were good, moral people, they would be saved as well in one church as another. My father, about the time of my birth, met with an accident which caused his death. In cutting the lock of a hoop with a very sharp pointed knife, he let it slip into his leg just above the knee. He was laid up with it for some time; but being a man of great ambitions, he went to work before it was sound, which proved fatal to him and ended in his death. He died in 1831 (29 March) leaving my mother with my sister, Jane, and myself."
After Josiah's death Sally married Samuel Ferrin on 21 January 1833. She and her son George Josiah Marsh went to Utah in 1852.
Josiah was the son of Lemuel Marsh and Rosanna Warner of Vermont. His brother, Lemuel Lucius Marsh, is buried in this same cemetery.
