According to a biographical history, Rebecca was the daughter of John Marsh who came to Hamilton County in 1794. (Ref. Biographical Encyclopedia of Ohio of the 19th Century (1876). The family of Isaac and Rebecca lived on a farm in the Sycamore Township of Cincinnati (Hamilton County), Ohio (Ref History of Howard and Tipton County, Indiana). In August, 1820 two of their young daughters died within six days of each other. Isaac died on 29 June 1849 in Sycamore Township.
