Hi russ,

Maybe I misunderstood you there, but rehearsal marks should be put at the place 
where they are supposed to appear. 

In your case:

\relative c'' {
  
  \mark \markup "at start of measure" 
  c2 \mark \markup "after 2 beats"  c2 | 

  \break 
  \mark \markup "at start of next measure" c1
}


Best, Robert
