When James Marion was born, the family was living on a ten-acre farm at Sugar House, now 9th East and 17th South. His father, James, hauled wood from the canyons, selling it to the match factory. He sold corn shocks to the furniture company and took furniture in pay. With partners, he owned and operated a molasses mill, using the cane raised by farmers in the valley.
In 1891 James bought a 160-acre ranch for his sons, James Marion and Hugh, on the Moody Creek near Teton, Idaho. Their oldest brother, Jacob, had been one of the original settlers of Teton and its second bishop. James Marion and Hugh moved to Teton, joining their brother, Jacob, there.
James Marion died nine years later. There is no record of where or how. There is also no record of marriage, a spouse, or children.
