Marriage records for children of Henderson and Margaret MARSHALL are found in a variety of sources.
Ontario County Mar Reg 3:45 William MARSHALL 33, of Brock twp,
Ontario co, b Scot, mar Elizabeth HILL 23 Nov 1869.
Toronto City Mar Reg 2:28 Elisabeth MARSHALL, spinster of Brantford,
born Scotland, married John SCANLON of the 17th Regiment Toronto 19 Dec 1867.
Haldimand Co Mar Reg p142 Sarah MARSHALL, 22 of Seneca twp, Brant co
born Scotland, married Charles Thomas ROBERTSON of Seneca twp 30 Apr 1867.

ROBERTSON: response
An article on the SIMONS family (Ontario Historical Society Papers and
Records pp 470-492, vol. 23, 1926) contains an interesting statement that
is somewhat at variance with the information given in the query.
"Colonel (Titus GREER) SIMONS had three daughters, but no sons.
The two elder daughters married two brothers, Messrs. ROBERTSON,
Barristers, of Goderich, one of whom, Thomas, later was elevated to a
judicial position at Osgoode Hall in Toronto."
Marriage bonds exist for Alexander and Ross ROBERTSON and their
respective SIMONS brides, but there is a third bond for Thomas ROBERTSON
and Charlotte FISH, both of London, 1832, with bondsmen show as
Ira SCHOFIELD and William ROBERTSON.
The names of these bondsmen certainly seem to connect this marriage bond
to the family mentioned in the query.
The 1857 Directory of the Province of Ontario shows Thomas ROBERTSON,
barrister, residing in Dundas.

ROCKEY name_game@ca.on.ogs.families 2000-08 published
SPAUN/SPOHN:SPRINGSTEEN/STEAD/STEED :(response)
There is a marriage record for this family that give Adelia SPOHN's
maiden name as WITHERAL, not SPRINGSTEEN:
Elgin Co Mar Register, vol 2 page 41:
Charles SPOHN, 23 of Saint Thomas, born Canada,
son of Peter L. SPOHN and Delia WITHERAL
married on 24 Jan 1866 to Selina COLE age 23 of Saint Thomas, born England,
dtr of Samuel COLE and Mary ROCKEY.
They were married by Rev. Geo. CUTHBERTSON of Saint Thomas, Presbyterian,
with Robert CARRIE of Saint Thomas as witness.
The same mar reg shows the 1865 marriage of Wesley SPOHN of Ancaster
(son of Philip) to Eliza GRIFFIN of Sparta, so there was certainly some
movement of the SPOHN family back and forth between the Ancaster and
Saint Thomas areas.
