Genealogical and family history of the state of New Hampshire By Ezra S. Stearns, William Frederick Whitcher, Edward Everett Parker, Lewis Publishing Company:
The names of Marble, Marable and MARBLE Marvel are probably derived from the same source, but which of them was the original cannot be definitely determined. The family is of English origin and includes among its representatives the inventor of calico-printing. The posterity of William of Charlcstown, Joseph of Andovcr. Gershom of Hingham, Nicholas of Gloucester, John of Boston and Samuel of Salem, who settled there early in the colonial period, constitutes the various branches of the family in America. Samuel married Rebecca Andrews and his son Freegrace became one of the original settlers in Sutton, Worcester County, Massachusetts. The maiden name of his wife was Mary L. Sibley, and she bore him three sons: Samuel, Malachi and Enoch. John Marble, eldest son of Enoch, was born in Sutton in 1751, and participated in the battle of Bunker Hill. In 1794 he went to Dixfield, Oxford County, Maine, as a pioneer. Loammi Marble, mentioned in the succeeding paragraph, belonged to the Dixfield branch of the family.
(I) Loammi Marble, a descendant of Freegrace of Sutton. Massachusetts, a native of Worcester went from there to Dixfield, Maine, where he engaged in farming, and resided in that town for the rest of his life. He married Harriet Barnard and reared a family.
(II) Barnard L., son of Loammi and Harriet (Barnard) Marble, was born in Dixfield in 1821. His early life was spent at the homestead but becoming tired of the monotony of farming life he sought a more congenial occupation and finally became proprietor of a hotel in Maine, which he conduced successfully for a number of years. He was a pro-slavery Democrat and a man of pronounced opinions, entertaining at his home the famous secessionist leader, Jefferson Davis, during the latter's visit to Maine, and although practically surrounded by abolitionists he displayed the courage of his convictions by openly sympathizing with the Confederate cause during the rebellion. He served as postmaster and his death occurred in Dixfield in 1892. He married Lucy Trask Abbott, who became the mother of five children.
(Ill) Henry Marble, M. D., son of Barnard L. and Lucy T. (Abbott) Marble, was born in Dixfield September 5, 1848. His early education was completed at the Norwich (Vermont) University, and his professional preparations were concluded at the Maine Medical School, from which he was graduated in 1870, being twenty-one years old and the youngest member of his class. Locating in Auburn, Maine, he practiced medicine there for ten years or until failing health caused him to seek an occupation wherein he would be less exposed to the inclemency of the weather, and he accordingly established himself in the drug business at Gorham, New Hampshire. At the expiration of three years, with renewed health made possible by the invigorating atmosphere of that locality, he resumed the practice of his profession in Gorham and has ever since continued it with gratifying success. Dr. Marble is not only an able medical practitioner, but is a progressive citizen as well, and evinces a profound interest in all matters relative to life, welfare and progress of the community. While residing in Auburn he represented that city in the Maine legislature and as a member of that body in 1879, the year in which occurred the famous political movement known as the "state steal," he was largely instrumental in bringing to an amicable settlement a contest which threatened to produce serious results. Since settling in Gorham he has served on the board of United States pension examiners for twelve years, was chairman of the board of education for nine years and for the past ten years has rendered excellent service upon the board of health. He is a member of the Maine State and the Androscoggin County Medical societies; the New Hampshire State and the Coos County Medical societies, and is well advanced in the Masonic Order, belonging to the Blue Lodge in Dixfield, the Royal Arch Chapter in Berlin, the council of Royal and Select Masters in Lewiston, and the commander of Knights Templar in that city. In his religious belief he is a Universalist.
Dr. Marble married Mercy Littlefield, daughter of Thomas Littlefield, who at one time held the office of sheriff of Androscoggin County and was elected the first mayor of Auburn. Dr. and Mrs. Marble have two children: Thomas L., who is now practicing law in Berlin, this state; and Laura K., now the wife of Walter Weston.
According to hand written records from Eunice Leiola Crane Root. B. L. Marble ran the National House, the town's hotel, for many years. Harriet ran it after his death.
