One of the oldest citizens of Carroll County, Paul Marshall, departed this life April 20, 1899, at the residence of his son-in-law, Aaron A. Davis, in Polo Township. The deceased was one of twin brothers born June 1, 1801, and would have been 99 years old if he had reached his next birthday. The other brother, Saul Marshall, was still living at Kadesh, Virginia, when last heard from the second day of last March.
Paul Marshall had raised a large family, sixteen children in all, and of these five are still living, the youngest one being now fifty years of age. During his long residence in this county he had made many friends.
