    • He was an original proprietor of Hartford,CT in 1636, and also lived in Hadley and Northampton,MA.

      Son of John Marsh and Grace (Baldwin) Marsh. [The American Genealogist Volume 58, in which it states the parentage is proven by the will of Grace (Baldwin) Marsh where she mentions her son John 'now in New England'.]

      This John Marsh should not be confused with John Marsh of Salem (1611-1674). That memorial incorrectly names that John Marsh's parents as John Marsh and Grace Baldwin. John and Grace were THIS John Marsh's parents.

      His first wife was Anne Webster Marsh.

      His second wife was Hepzibah Ford Lyman Marsh, the widow of Richard Lyman Jr, and the daughter of Thomas Ford and Elizabeth Charde Ford.

      He had a brother Joseph Marsh of Braintree, Co.Essex, England whose 1676 will was contested and whose estate was distributed to John Marsh's children, and a sister Lydia Marsh Martin, whose daughter Grace he and his second wife adopted.

      Children(by first marriage): John Marsh Jr, Samuel Marsh, Joseph Marsh, Joseph Marsh, Jonathan Marsh, Daniel Marsh, Hannah Marsh Loomis, amd Grace Marsh Baker.

      Children(by second marriage): Lydia Marsh.
