After the Civil War soldiers were given land as bonus rewards for their service. Marshall was not on the family census for 1870 in Clayton Co., Iowa. I could not find him listed anywehre. In 1875 he is on the census for Black Hammer, Houston, Minnesota. Houston County is the first Minnesota County up river from Iowa. Marshall is 28 years old, married to a Claire C. who was born in Illinois in 1844, one daughter Nettie M. born in 1872 in Minnesota, One son Orville born 1874 in Minnesota. In 1880 he is still listed there with a different wife, Jane, and one more son, Melvin, born 1880. Also living with her brother and his family is Lovina. On this census she is call Vina. This is how I find her listed from now on data.

I could find no information after 1870 on Ansel Pulsifer. Tamson appears in data in 1890 living in St. Paul with her daughter Vina and son in law George Smith. Son Almonde and daughter Emergene's whereabouts are not know after 1870.

Notes:

He purchased land in Crown Point 1866. On 27
Nov. 1872, he mortgaged that property
most likely to pay his 1872 taxes. The
mortgage was recorded on 27 Aug. 1873 by
Amos at the clerk's office. According to
Spaulding's History of Crown Point, by 20
Nov. 1873, Amos was no longer living. Amos,
John Ober and a Mr. Ephriam Towner were
the only 3 men to be named on all the tax
lists for Crown Point (1818, 1835 and 1872).
John Ober was the only one surviving by
the time Mr. Spaulding wrote his short
history.

Notes:

Family tradition says that we are part Indian. If so;
the only place one would fit, would have to be Israel's
wife.
Pictures of Jane Susan Pulsifer at Ironville
Museum (Crown Point) give the appearence
of strong Indian facial features. Descendants
from Jane's brother Lorenzo, also carry in
some of them, this strong Indian charactor-
istic. Dark hair and eyes and high cheek bones.
