- the deed is recorded 2-Nov-1824
- Edward Mardin participates in this document “in right of my wife Eliza”
- Edward is residing in Dalton, Coos County, NH at this time

- Eliza Marden has siblings living in Bath named;
- Webster D. Annis
- Joseph Annis
- Nathaniel F. Annis
- Eunice Annis
- Rachel, wife of Samuel Currier
- Lois Annis
- Mehitable N. Annis
- Eliza has a sibling living in Littleton named Asa Annis
- Eliza has a sibling living in Amsbury, MA named David Annis

What is the importance of this deed as it related to the Marden family? First, it establishes the marriage of Edward Marden to Elizabeth Annis. Second, it tells us the Edward Jr. has moved away from Lyman and is living in Dalton by 1824. Third, it may be useful to know names of Elizabeth’s siblings as I begin to dig deeper into Edward Jr..
