Marion was actually born in Russell, Pennsylvania, which is now only a census-designated place and so not in the options for Find A Grave places. Russell was also formerly known as Russellburg and Russellville and was named for Marion's father, Robert. It is in Pine Grove Township, which is in Find A Grave's list of standard places. There is also a question about Marion's place of death, as I have it as Waupaca, Waupaca County, Wisconsin. (from Find A Grave contributor # 47171305)
