Marcus went to Buffalo, N.Y., and there he married Sarah Holleran in December, 1888. They lived at 981 Exchange Street, where they raised Mae, George, James and Vincent. Marcus was a patrolman for the Buffalo Police Department. He died in 1906 at the age of 42 years old.
Larry Bauer, a great-grandson, of Marcus, writes of Marcus and Sarah's Family: "The family was a close one. Family photos show the kids sharing good times with friends and family. All three of their sons served in the military during World War I. Mae became a private secretary and stenographer at Bethlehem Steel. After the war, Vincent worked as a city inspector, George as a fireman and James as a probation officer."1
Marcus' obituary in the Buffalo Courier Express as cited by Larry Bauer reads "Former Patrolman Marcus Mahoney died of Bright's disease at his family residence at 981 Exchange Street at 12:30 o'clock this morning. Officer Mahoney served on the police force for 14 years and was retired on pension last December. His last patrol duty was in the 2nd Precinct. He had been ill for a year. His age was 42. He is survived by a widow and four children."1
