In 1870, Sam Marshall, at 45 years old, was living in Westfield, New York with his wife, Susan. At 44 years old, according to this census which may not include all children, Susan had given birth to four children: Vergner, 17; George, 7; Augustine, 4; and Maggie, 1. Mary Leicester, aged 65 and widowed, is living with the family as well.

By 1880, the Marshall family had moved to Rossville. Samuel continued to work as an oysterman. Another son had been added to the family, Edward B. who was now 9 years old. Vergner, who would now be 27, most likely moved out on his own, but it is unknown whether or not he married or if indeed he was still living. Augustine, listed as a male in the 1870 census is missing from the 1880 census, but there is now a child by the name of Oscar B. who was not listed on the 1870 census, but would have been near the same age. Both parents and all children are listed as having been born in New York.
