Auctioneers Note: Allen and Marshall Auctioneers is honored to help with the sale of the Estate of Marvin P. Schelhouse. Marvin honorably served our country as a Master Sergeant in the U. S. Marine Corps for 20 years from 1956-76. After retiring from the Marine Corps, he moved with his family to Milford, and began working for the State of Delaware, Dept. of Labor for over 20 years. Marvin was very active in the Milford School District serving on the Board of Education for over 30 years. While being a member of the Board, he served as President multiple times. He served and was President of the Milford Historical Society for many years, in the restoration of the Parson Thorne Mansion. He was the Milford Museum commissioner in charge of many exhibits, such as The Vietnam War, The Battle of Iwo Jima, and The Civil War. For over 50 years, Marvin studied and had a profound interest in the life and military career of General Alfred Thomas Archimedes Torbert (1833-1880) of the U.S. Army, one of Delaware's most notable sons. Marvin edited the only book written about General Torbert titled, "A.T.A. Torbert, Southern Gentleman in Union Blue" by Nancy Slade. Marvin was one of the persons the book was dedicated to. Marvin founded and was the first Commander of the General Torbert Camp of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War. In this capacity, he took the leadership role to restore the Milford Union Cemetery where 12 Civil War soldiers and one from the Spanish American War is buried. In 1969, Marvin was the only person to attempt to save General Torbert's house in Milford from destruction. This was an endeavor that was unsuccessful. Marvin worked to save and preserve other Milford historical properties. In honor of General Torbert and his service to our country, Marvin successfully spearheaded the effort to have a statue of General A.T.A. Torbert erected on the grounds of the Milford Museum. Marvin served on the Civil War Society that established the Delaware Memorial/Monument at Gettysburg National Military Park to commemorate the service of those Delawareans that fought at the battle of Gettysburg. Marvin received a Tribute from the Delaware House of Representatives for his work and his accomplishment 137 years after the battle. Marvin was an honorable and distinguished icon of Milford who will truly be missed by all. This is one of the most important sales of our time for local and regional Civil War Memorabilia. If you are a collector of Civil War Memorabilia this is one sale you wont want to miss!! Go to AMauctions.com for all details!
