(My appreciation to David Chamness for the additional information he contributed on this family.)
Margaret Scypert was born August 15, 1744, in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Francis Scypeart and Charity Townsend.
Margaret married Jacob Marshall (Marshill) on September 19, 1767, at Cane Creek Meeting House in Orange County, North Carolina. Jacob Marshall was born September 2, 1745, in Chester County, Pennsylvania, the son of John Marshall and Ruth Hadley. John Marshall was born about 1720, in Tyrone County, Ireland, the son of Jacob Marshall. Ruth Hadley was born about 1726, in New Castle County, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Joshua Hadley. Jacob was the eldest of eleven children.
Jacob and Margaret were Quakers. They raised their children in Orange County.
Jacob died April 26, 1818, in Orange County and is probably buried in Cane Creek Meeting House Cemetery in Orange County. Margaret died in Orange County and is also probably buried in Cane Creek Meeting House Cemetery.
