We need a better source for his early years! 1) Was he born in Marion, New York or Marion, Kansas? 2) Did he attend high school in Marion, New York or Marion, Kansas? It doesn't make sense that he was born in New York but went to high school in Kansas with a similar name. •

The book I cite states that he moved from one Marion to another at age fourteen with his family. Must be coincidental unless the book is wrong.

Here is what I found...so it looks like he did live in both Marion, NY and Marion, KS. I had to create a free account to use familysearch.org, so I'm not sure if other people can read the pages at those links without logging into it. •
