Notes:

[wrecknervous.ged]

Marcellus John Bills was born in Romulus in 1843 to Ira Bil
ls. Throughouthis short life, h e seems to have gone by the name Marshall rather thanthe more unconventional "Marcellus". Ir a Bills had a brother, AlvahBills who lived nearby and who had a son, Charles, who was abou t thesame age as Marshall. The two cousins grew up together and seem to havebeen very close .

Caught up in the great patriot fervor that swep the area in the summer of1862, the two boy s left the farm and went off to war. They enlisted incompany H, August 13, 1862 at Detroit . Marshall Bills was 18. Company Hwas mustered into service on August 13, 1862.

Not very much is known about Marshall Bills service. He was promoted tocorporal, and appoint ed to the color guard in early May 1864, inrecognition of his excellent service . He was no t to serve in thiscapacity for very long.

The State Adjutant General's records list Marshall Bills as "missing inaction at Jericho For d, Virginia., May 23, 1864. No further Record." Infact, he was captured by the confederates , during the action at JerichoFord (also known as North Anna). He was held temporarily at on e of theRichmond area prisons for about a week. Eventually he was taken toAndersonville, wh ere he died on November 15, 1864. His war records statehe died of starvation and exposure. H is remains probably are interred inthe National Cemetery at Andersonville.

Notes:

From Ancestral File (TM), data as of 2 January 1996.
Samuel Bills (1770-1840)
The First Michigan Emigrant Samue
l was the firstBills to emigrant to the Mich igan Territory. Land was for sale , andhe bought fort y acres in Wayne County in 1835.1 Weakened by his move and old age, he lived only a short time on hi s new land,but his children who buried him would se e his land patent becomepart of a state in 1840, a nd later an integral part of theDetroit Metropolita n Area.2 A journey to new and strangesurroundings was no t new for Samuel. He was probably born inVermont i n 1777, and could be the same "Samuel Bills" who lived i nBerkshire, Franklin County, Vermont in 1810 with his w ife, two boys,and four daughters.3 Sometime between 181 3 and 1819, he crossed theAdironacks to New York Stat e, and settled (again probably) inJefferson County.4 Before he traveled the length of the Erie Canal and Lake Erie to Michigan, Samuel had raised part o f hisfamily, and had started on another. Marvin an d Syman Bills whowere mentioned in his will, probab ly his older sons who wereborn in Vermont and ha d established their own households by1835.5 Ira (180 9-1896), Alvah (1812-1900), William (1819-1900), andHir am ((1824-1872) who were mentioned came with their fat her fromNew York to Nankin Township. They helped hi m to raise the firstroof over the Michigan Bills an d stayed in Michigan, near theoriginal homestead, th e rest of their lives which saw thetwilight of th e 1900. Samuel had other children about whom we donot k now too much. He had sons named Albert and Samuel , anddaughters named Sally and Eunice, all of who m were born between1825 and 1836. 6 At the time o f his will in 1854, Albert andSamuel lived in Milwa ukee, with their brother Syman; Sally livedin Branc h City (Coldwater) Michigan, and Eunice with her hus bandEdwin Haywood in Nankin.7 At his death , Samuel was married to aPermelia L andden who later remarried a Issac Scudder, ofFarmingto n,Michigan in 1845.8 Permelia was most likely the mo ther of Albert,Samuel, and Eunice all born after 1 825, questionably, the mother ofHiram, William, and S ally who were born between 1819 and 1825.Although w e do not know Sally's age , we think that there wa s aseven year "gap" between Alvah and William (1812-1819 ) which might bea period when Samuel was widowed be fore marrying Miss Ladden inNew York State.9 A Eunice Woodruff is listed on Alvah's death certificate as his mother, and because of this record, a nd Ira'sconfirmed birthdate in 1809 when Permelia wa s only 16, we thinkthat this Eunice was their mothe r as well as Syman's and Marvin's.In any even t , Samuel had at least two wives, and at least te nchildren. He brought only part of this large famil y to Michiganwith him. Samuel died on May 3, 1840 in Nankin Township , WayneCounty, Michigan. He was the first "Bills " to be buried in UnionChapel Cemetery. Unlike the ir parents, many oif his grandchildrenwould be pulle d by the pioneer spirit from Michigan to parts of the United States and Canada. Like their parents, man y of hisgrandchildren would stay in Michigan to bec ome the "MichiganBills".

History of Royalton Vermont. "Under control of New York State until1769, at
the Westminister Convention of January 15, 1777, Vermont inhabitants
voted for a new state. In October 28, 1777, the people of Royalton
had to pay $2/acre to keep their land, and joined in to petition thestate.
Settlers had acquired their land under a charter to New York State. Thismay
account for some of the confusion, about birthplace, New York orVermont, for Samuel's children.
