"William Marshall was born low down in the Northern Neck in Virginia in 1735. His family was of eminent respectability and he was raised in affluence He was an uncle to the distinguished Chief Justice Marshall and a brother to Col Thomas Marshall who was distinguished among the Kentucky pioneers and whose descendants have been so noted for brilliancy of talent in Kentucky from its first settlement to the present time He spent his youth in sport and social gayety In youth says JB Taylor he was remarkable for his devotion to the fashionable amusements of the day. His tall, graceful form, dark piercing eye and engaging manners rendered him the pride of the circle in which he moved. This vain and thoughtless course of life was continued till near middle age; but having married the sister of Elder John Pickett, he was brought under the ministry of that faithful servant of Christ and other Baptist preachers. In 1768, some of the zealous Separate Baptists visited Fauquier county, and Mr Marshall was converted and baptized. ..." [8] [9]
