Henry Frank is my Great-Grandpa.
The son of William Kelker Marshall (1829-1911) and Anna Mary Rumbarger Marshall (1838-1924) of Reynoldsville, Jefferson Co. PA. He was named for his Uncle Henry Marshall, who died a prisoner of war at Andersonville, Georgia; and for his Uncle Franklin Rumbarger, who was a sharpshooter with the Union Army. He was born on Christmas Day 1867 in a lumber camp in Washington Township, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. His father was a lumberman in the virgin forests of Pennsylvania.

Known as Frank, he worked for his Uncle Jacob Leathers Rumbarger in Rumbarger's lumber mill in/near Dobbin, Grant County, West Virginia. There he met and married Sarah (Sadie) Jane Wilkins (1876-1944), the daughter of Joseph Henry Wilkins and Irene Inez Strawderman. The couple's first four children were born in Garret County, Maryland. In about 1907 or so, the family relocated to Hood River, Oregon; and a few years later, to Carson, Skamania County, Washington, where they lived the rest of their lives. Frank grew apples, prunes and strawberries.

Frank Marshall's descendants (a branch of the William K. and Anna Mary Marshall Family) live today in the Northwest.

OBITUARY: H.F. Marshall was born in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, on the 25th day of December, 1867, and passed away Thursday, November 9, 1922. Mr. Marshall came to Carson, Washington eleven years ago where he has since made his home. He was respected by all that knew him and leaves a family to mourn his loss consisting of a wife, four sons and three daughters, also a mother, five brothers and three sisters. Services were conducted at the Marshall home in Carson by Rev. Harbutt, interment being on Sunday at the I.O.O.F. Cemetery, Carson, Washington. Published in The Skamania County Pioneer, Stevenson, WA. 17 November 1922. Information from "Obituaries from the Skamania County Pioneer Newspaper, 1900-1929", compiled by Homer and Alice Townsend.
