In Reply to: Florence Irene Marsh 1927 Pennsylvania by Barbara Jean Hunsicker of 5865

The 1930 census (dated April 8) shows a Florence I. Marsh 3 10/12 as the daughter of Clarence 31 and Maggie 30 living in Lehigh Twp, Northampton County PA. Also listed are 5 other children of this couple (Helen, Arlene, Floyd, Pauline and Kenneth) who married when they were 17 and 16.

The 1920 census shows Clarence and Maggie with his brother Quillas Marsh 17 again Lehigh Twp.

The 1910 census shows a Clarence and Quillas as the son of George and Sarah Marsh of Lehigh Twp

The 1900 census shows Clarence as born May 1899 and his parents were born Sept 1860 and Aug 1867 respectively.

A WWI draft card shows Clarence Alvin Marsh of Danielsville, Northampton County, was born May 30, 1898. His nearest relative was Maggie Annie Marsh of the same address as his.

Some of these records you can look at for free at labs.familysearch.org and Ancestry.com. For those you cannot see for free I suggest checking with your local libraries to see if they have Ancestry or Heritage Quest.

This Sep 12, 1986 obit from the Allentown Morning Call ties it altogether:

Mrs. Florence I. Anewalt, 59, of Bowmanstown, died Thursday in Palmerton Hospital. She was the widow of Charles F. Anewalt.

Born in Danielsville, she was a daughter of R. Geraldine (Weidaw) Burbes of Bowmanstown, and the late John F. Burbes.

Surviving with her mother are two daughters, Eileen of Housatonic, Mass., and Kathy, at home; a son, Dennis of Lehighton R.4; a brother, Floyd Marsh of Bethlehem; three sisters, Arlene, wife of Robert Brown of Phillipsburg; Pauline, wife of Carl Seifert of Hellertown, and Mrs. Helen Frey of Pasadena, Calif., and two granddaughters.

Services will be at 10:30 a.m. Saturday in the Charles H. Campton Funeral Home, 525 Delaware Ave., Palmerton. A calling hour will precede the services.

As does this one from Oct 29, 1992:

Floyd R. Marsh, 68, of 821 Washington Ave., Bethlehem, died Wednesday in his home. He was the husband of Margaret (Logan) Marsh. They were married 47 years in April.

Marsh was employed by Bethlehem Steel Corp. for many years before retiring in 1986.
