     Denard Marshall is assumed to be the 15-20 year old in Aaron's household in the 1840 Census. While no record has been found stating that Dennard Marshall was a son of Aaron and Matilda, he, a farmer age 26, and his family were living only 2 households from Aaron in 1850 and he named a daughter Matilda. Other Marshalls living nearby have their lines complete. The most concrete evidence indicating that Dennard was a son of Aaron and Matilda is a deed dated 4 Sep 1852, showing Dennard Marshall and wife Elizabeth J. joining Matilda Marshall (assumed to be his mother) in selling 3 acres on Saxis Island to William Linton for $140 (Acc Deeds 1851-53, p. 518). On 7 May 1853, Dennard Marshall and his wife Elizabeth J., sold 5 acres on Saxes Island for $275 to Thomas E. Marshall (assumed to be his brother). It was bounded on the North by William Linton, on the East by the Sanford Charity, on the South by Zachariah Marshall, and on the West by the Pocomoke Sound (Acc Deeds No. 39, 1853-1855, p. 5). On 23 Jun 1854, Dennard Marshall bought 33 acres on Saxes Island from John Spence and his wife Leah Ann (they were the parents of his wife Elizabeth J.). The amount of the sale is not clear, but one slave and personal property were also included (Acc Deeds No. 39, 1853-1855, p. 319). "Dennard" Marshall died intestate by 30 Mar 1863, when William S. Byrd was named to administer his estate. John T. Lewis, Absalom Lewis, Parker Miles and Revel J. Lewis were to appraise his personal estate (Acc Orders 1862-65, p. 41). Further proof of his children is based on Acc Deeds 1876-77, p. 128, dated 21 Feb 1876, wherein James Brindle Marshall from Corbin Thomas and wife Sarah, Alonzo Thomas and wife Jane, Avera J. Ellis and wife Margaret E., Thomas H. Linton and wife Ellen H., Josephus Cutler and wife Matilda, Elizabeth Marshall and Julia Marshall, all of Saxis Island - land they heired from their father, Dennard Marshall, subject to Elizabeth Marshall's thirds (widow of Dennard Marshall) - 1 3/4 acres on Saxis Island. He is buried in the Ellis Cemetery on Saxis, but the dates on the tombstone are too faint to read. Denard was born circa 1824 at Saxis, Acc Co, VA.2 He was the son of Aaron Marshall Sr. and Matilda 'Tinny' Fisher. He married Elizabeth J. Spence circa 1846.3 Denard was listed as a head of household in the census of in 1850 at Accomack Parish, Acc Co, VA.
