Written to Thomas (T.C) Marsh on August 5. 1867
T.C. Marsh was a wealthy and influential farmer in Dallas, Texas in the mid to late 1800s.
MARSH – Farmers Branch, Tex., March 20 – Thos. C. Marsh, an old settler, died at his home, two miles from this place, yesterday at noon of paralysis. He was born in Harrison county, Kentucky, in 1831 and came to Texas in 1844, while it was yet a republic, and settled on Farmers’ branch, where he has lived ever since. He was a confederate veteran, serving the whole four years in Walker’s brigade. He was also a Mason in high standing.

The paper is creased from storage, but ink and handwritten letters/numbers are still vibrant

A antique wooden storage box was purchased at a local estate auction approximately 20 years ago by my family. Many documents were found relating to the T.C. Marsh history. I will be posting these items in the very near future.
