Marvin Fox, when young, was in poor, health, but after his father's death, having partially recovered his health, he purchased part of the home farm and remained on it until 1886, when he sold his farm and purchased one in East Dorset, Bennington .County. In 1852, he moved to Illinois, and purchased a large farm in Fullersburg, Du Page County. This proved a very profitable investment, but it is sad to relate that many of the family died during the first few years of their residence in Illinois. Marvin's wife Amy died in 1885; Marvin died in 1890; their married life covered the period of sixty-one years. He married Sept., 28, 1828, Amy Andrus who was born in Wallingford, Vt., Nov. 5, 1805.
