They lived in Wilmot, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia, Canada.

"Sometime before the Revolution, probably around 1770, four brothers Marshall went to Granville, Nova Scotia, three of them in Wilmot, the other, Anthony, at Marshalltown, Digby County. Their parentage has not been satisfactorily ascertained. Solomon is reported to have come from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts and thence to Nova Scotia, while Anthony is reported to have come over from Long Island, New York. William is said to have got his wife, Lydia, in Roxbury, Massachusetts, so it is difficult to arrive at precise data to trace them. That they were brothers was always said by their children in Nova Scotia.
