Father: William Marshall 1807–1861
Tabor Beacon Jan 12, 1900
Asman, Mrs. John, died at her home at Tabor last Sunday afternoon, after a long illness. Funeral services were held Tuesday at 2 from the family residence, and despite the bad roads and stormy weather, many attended to show a tribute of respect to the dead. The casket was attended by members of the John Allen WRC #314, of which the deceased was an honor member, and members of the John Allen Post #215 GAR. The remains were taken to the Tabor Cemetery and buried beside her departed husband. Elizabeth Marshall Asman was born in England 5 Mar 1837. When she was 14 years of age, her parents came to Pittsfield OH where she lived until the time of her marriage to John Asman, removing to Tabor soon afterward. To this union 8 children were born, 5 of whom live to miss a mother's love, thought and care. The children are: Mrs. Nellie Feese, Mrs. Newt Roberts, Miss Anna Asman, John and Will Asman, all of whom live in this community.
1870 census for Ross, Fremont County, Iowa, gives Elizabeth's age as 3, which, if accurate, would mean he was born in 1840.
