That's because they are Project Markers, not item markers.

I don't think there is a "native" way to copy or move markers (although I haven't tried to see if they move with Region moves), but I did incorporate a marker copy and move utility in my Item Marker Tool script (link in my sig).

To copy or move in the Item Marker Tool.

run the script
click the "select" column header to enable marker selection.
click the selection squares corresponding to the markers you want to copy/move.
clicking [copy] toggles between copying and moving.
set a "by:" or "to:" timeline value to either copy/move the markers relative (by a time) or absolute (to a time). Mousewheel changes the values, middle click resets the values to zero. Dragging changes the values for large changes.
For absolute moves, you need to choose which marker actually goes to that point on the timeline -the "index marker". Right-click the marker in the selection column, or mousewheel over the index marker annotation at the bottom. Note: the index marker doesn't actually have to be a marker that is copied/moved -the markers that are, will copy/move relative to it.
clicking "[<= Edit cursor nn:nn.nnn]" sets the absolute move to the edit cursor
click "[copy (move) nn markers -GO]" to action the copy (move). It will flash red on clicking and do nothing if no time or index marker (required for absolute copy/move) is set.

Clicks and modifiers are always displayed as green help text at the bottom of the window. Shout back if you need any help with it.

Edit: the tool also detects and removes duplicate marker numbers, renumbers markers and attaches marker to items too...
