Description
Wednesday we had a call from Uncle Ike Marshall, an old colored man who formerly belonged to Dr. Frederick Marshall of Platte City.
Uncle Ike was over from Leavenworth visiting his old mistress, Mrs. Judge Norton, and other old acquaintances in Platte City. He left Platte County 49 years ago (~1863) and is now in his 84th year (born ~1828).
(Researcher's note: It seems probable that Ike Marshall was visiting Mrs. Missouri Norton nee' Marshall. Judge Elijah Hise Norton married Malinda Wilson on May 28, 1850, and she died May 15, 1873. On September 17, 1877, he then married Missouri A. Marshall, daughter of Elisha Green and widow of Dr. Frederick Marshall.)Date(s) of Creation
