According to Her Nephew

According to a book called Musicians II, there was an interview with her nephew who stated that her middle was not "Wayne" but "Mae Warne Marsh". Her mother's maiden name was Warne , and according to the 1880 Census for Lawrence, Kansas, she is listed as "May T. Warne" born in Illinois in 1870. Her nephew's name was Warne Marsh who was Oliver Marsh's son.Stutzey (talk) 01:25, 17 September 2010

According to Mae Marsh's mothers passport (her mother), her father's name was Charles, and he died in 1904.

Actress Mae Marsh(1894-1968)was my Mother's brother's wife. He was Louis Lee Arms (1888-1989), and they had 3 children: Meri, Brewster and Marguerite - who are helping me figure out their mother's family. On the 1900 census, El Paso, Texas, are her Father S. Charles Marsh, born Sept. 1866, in Missouri, her mother Mae Warne, born March, 1870, in Illinois, and 6 children, (1 boy and 6 girls), with names and birth dates. They were Marguerite, Elizabeth Day, Oliver T, Mae, Frances & Mildred. On the 1910 census in Los Angeles, widow Mae Warne Marsh was wife of William Hall, and in same house were Oliver, Mae, Frances, Mildred, and married daughter Marguerite Loveridge & husband Donald with 2 year old Leslie. CORRECTION TO YOUR RECORDS: Mae Marsh was born at NEW MADRID, NEW MEXICO, now a ghost town, according to her daughter Marguerite, and her middle name was WARNE, not Wayne. I found her mother Mae Warne Marsh (not Hall), Elizabeth Day Bertholon, Oliver T, his wife Elizabeth, son Warne and daughter Gloria Oxford buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Glendale, Calif., and am trying to trace Marguerite, Frances & Mildred. In an earlier article on Mae Marsh, I have 2 questions:

 1)  Who was "Great Aunt" who steered Mae to Hollywood?
 2)  Where did you get info on Marguerite (Loveridge), who died in 1925 at age 37?

My mother was Frances Arms Johnson Helen J. Martz

Clarification of birth date

Text within the article indicates a birth year of 1894 but in other locations it is stated as 1884. I have just watched "Intolerance" and I can't believe Mae was 32 when this was filmed so I suspect the correct birth year is 1894. Should I go ahead and change the date to 1894 and can someone verify this is the correct date?Sterton (talk) 23:42, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Avoiding plagiarism

I have added quotation marks around three sentences in the "Early life" section and added a citation to avoid plagiarism. Except for a few words in the third sentence of the quotation, the material is verbatim from The First Female Stars: Women of the Silent Era, which is cited elsewhere in the article. I question whether that paragraph is needed. Is it necessary to relate "a frequently told story of Marsh's childhood" and then discredit it? Eddie Blick (talk) 02:38, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Census as primary source

In reference to discrediting the "frequently told story of Marsh's childhood", the debunking is based on census records. However, part c of Wikipedia:No original research#Notes includes census records among "Further examples of primary sources". Why should material that is supported by published secondary sources (Notable American Women: The Modern Period: a Biographical Dictionary and The First Female Stars: Women of the Silent Era) be discredited in favor of conclusions drawn from primary sources?
