    Hi John & welcome,

    I found a Samuel Marksbury on the Familysearch website:

    Samuel Marksberry Male 1790 – 1849 • KLY2-XW3

    Quite a large family tree there and some useful source material but cannot see a link to Douglas?

    Best regards

    Hi John,

    The Familysearch website is the biggest free genealogical website in the world.

    To search their records for family information you will need to register with the website:

    https://ident.familysearch.org/identity/login/

    Once you are registered you can log in & do a people search - on the top left of the page there is a search drop-down menu, choose family tree and this will lead you to another search page where you have two choices Find by name or
    Find by ID, choose the find by ID option and put in KLY2-XW3, which is the familysearch indentifier for Samuel Marksberry, and then search

    Click on 'Samual Marksberry' and a box will pop up, click on tree and this will take you to the tree which contains samuel. You can then explore all the individuals in the tree, access and download their records etc. Also if you have better info than is already in the tree you can modify the tree, but be careful as the tree is the work of other individuals.

    A lot of the stuff on Ancestry is copied from Familysearch

    Good luck & best regards
