9. | PULSIFER Orville (3.Marshall2, 1.ANSEL1) was born in 1864. Notes: From 1880 until 1910 there was no more information on Marshall. In 1910 he is listed as a "66 year old widower" living at the Orting Soldiers Home in Pierce, Washington. He is also there on the 1920 census. He died on 11 March 1920 at the age of 76 and is probably burried there. I found a listing on the 1900 census for his daughter Nettie who was working at the Minnetonka Beach Village. Nettie married a William C Henke and moved to Brookings Kings, New York. In 1920 her brother Orville Pulsifer, age 56, single was also part of the household. In 1930 Nettie was a widow and Orville was still there. I did find a marriage listed for an Orville Pulsifer in Rock Island Illilnois in 1899. So he probably was married for sometime to a lady named Ida. I do not know if there were any more children after Melvin. I did find a death listing for Melvin Pulsifer on 15 August 1882 in La Crosse Wisconsin. If this was Marshall's son he was only 2 years old. I think it is very likely because La Crosse is right across the river from Houston County, Minnesota. It would be intersting to find out Marshall's family history between 1880 and 1910, but at this time it is not known. There were many Purdy and Pulsifer families that moved to the west coast. Marshall's life really is the story of America after the Civil War. Born in Upper State New York he continued westward across the entire country to end his life in Washington State. What a journey he must have had. Orville married Ida in 1899 in Rock Island, Rock Island Co., IL. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
