  • Notes  Married:
    • "Thomas was most likely born in the late 1750's and probably married in Maryland in the late 1770's. Son William appears to have been born by at least the early part of 1780. Nancy is named as wife of Thomas in his will and they are mentioned in an 1804 land transaction. However, no marriage record has been located yet for Thomas in either Maryland or Virginia to prove whether Nancy was the mother of all of his children. The fact that the first two known children of Thomas were named William and Nancy gives some credence to the idea that his father was named William and his wife was Nancy. Woodson Marshall (a grandson) state that the maiden name of Riley (his father's) mother was Oliver, and that his oldest sister, Harriet Oliver Marshall was named for her. It could be interpreted to mean that Riley's mother was actually named Harriet Oliver, in which case Thomas would have married Nancy after Riley's birth in 1797 but before 1804. Am inclined to think that Thomas only had one wife, and her name was Nancy Oliver.

      Based on the bits of available information, would guess Nancy was born about 1759 and was at least 81 years old when she died in 1841. Although probably cared for most by the youngest daughter and son-in-law, Elizabeth and George Pollard, the 1840 census shows she COULD have been living with Nancy and Joseph Eubank. This Nancy was the daughter of William Marshall and probably the oldest grandchild of Thomas. If Nancy Marshall was living with the Eubank's then it woudl be another indication that she was the only wife of Thomas."
