well you’re all wrong, at least on the analysis/interpretation side.  just like mssr. Marsh may he rest in peace+

When did Marsh pass away?

[Tom Graves]

We [tinfoil-hat JFKA conspiracy theorists] are all part of the 2/3 to 3/4 majority of Westerners who believe JFK was killed by a conspiracy.

Which is indicative of how anomaly-replete the assassination was, how strong our desire to see a conspiracy where none exists is, how effective the writings of KGB agent Mark Lane, et al., were, and how effective the KGB's placing an anti-Clay Shaw/anti-CIA article in a Communist-owned Italian newspaper, "Paese Sera," on 4 March 1967 was.

D'oh!

Anthony didn’t pass away, he ‘assumpted’ like that nice lady Mary did.  He skipped the ‘dormition’, though.  Didn’t want everybody mourning him.  R.I.P.  Tony’s hometown was/is? Somerville, MA.

No, wait……….. Anthony, is that you?

I remember asking Tony if it was his family that Marsh Chapel at Harvard was named after.  Bonus points if anyone remembers ‘The Miracle at Marsh Chapel’, involving divinity students and a certain molecule…….

……… but back to reality and Tim’s question.  I really don’t know, Tony’s like Schrödinger’s cat.  There is K. Rahn’s e-mail at the ‘Marsh Collection’ website.  That’s over a quarter of a century old ! Dang, been at this too long. It never ends.  Hell is other people, fer sure.

I weary of ad hominem threads.

Shaw was the only American allowed in to British Intelligence during World War II in Italy...

  This CIA association explains the rest (not any nutty KGB stuff)...

When did Marsh pass away?

As best I can determine, it was shortly before John McAdams passed away. Tony was probably the most prolific poster on that forum. He would sometimes make dozens of posts a day. In the final year of that forum's existence, Tony's posts began being filled with mistyped words. He hinted that it was difficult for him to type without saying why but I suspect he might have had a stroke. About a month or two before John passed away, Tony had ceased posting altogether and one couldn't help but think the worst. Some people searched for an online obituary but didn't find one for Tony so maybe he survived but was no longer capable of posting at all. To the best of my knowledge, no one found any evidence since that time that Tony was still among the living.

I mentioned this when I did Fred Litwin's podcast that while I disagreed with the conclusions Tony reached regarding the JFKA, he had better command of the facts than anyone I have ever come across on either side of the question of conspiracy. It was the thought process he applied to all that knowledge that I could not agree with. One example of some of the minutia Tony was aware of is when I made the statement that Marrion Baker did not write the statement he signed but that somebody had typed it up for him to sign. Tony corrected me and informed me that the statement was not typed but handwritten. Who would know something like that. Apparently, Tony did.

UPDATE: I just did a search of Massachusetts public records looking to see if Tony Marsh had passed away and when. In order to get the report I would have to pay $1 and I'm too much of a cheapskate to do that. Maybe if someone else is curious, they can pay for the report.

Marsh used to post on this forum regularly. I engaged with him a number of times. He got offended by something and left. I think it was a forum rule. I'm not so sure that he has passed on. An internet search for "Anthony Marsh Somerville Massachusetts" finds an unmarried 79 year old Anthony Marsh.
