(p. 23) Mareen Duvall came to Maryland as an indentured servant. On 25 July 1659, having completed his indenture, he applied for 50 acres of land.
"Marin Du Vall demands fifty acres of land having performed his time of service with John Covell and brought in by William Burgess. Warrant issued for fifty acres 25 December next. Warrant renewed to John Jones for one hundred acres return 25 next." [citing Liber 4, folio 60, Land Office]

Most Indentures did not marry until having completed their service. There is no record of his marriage prior to 1658.
