  Notes	He registered for the WW1 draft in 1917. He's an electrican, married. He was in the Navy for four years (rank, "electrician"). There are other John Marshalls in New Orleans on the 1900 census, but this one is most probably his family because his birth date from the draft registration, July 1889, matches. He registered for the WW2 draft, giving the same address as on the 1940 census. [1, 3]
