"He was a farmer and soon after marriage settled on a farm near Freeburg, OH where he lived the remainder of his life. He was successful in business, owning two fair sized farms at the time of his death, which were acquired by hard and continuous labor. He was a loyal member of the ME church. The society at Freeburg was maintained largely by his support and influence. His was the home of the Itinerant. It was a great pleasure to him, on quarterly meeting occasions, to have a large number of the brethren from the other appointments to go home with him for dinner, twenty or more being thus entertained at one time. He fell into line with the Republican party at its organization and continued a faithful adherent. Of the ten children born to them, all lived and raised families and built up homes of their own. His widow, who survived him nineteen years, after the loss by fire of the house on the old home farm, moved to Marlboro, OH where she lived until called to her eternal home. Th[e] old family Bible, with its records, was burned in the house."S1 Handwritten in my copy of the Powell Family History book 1945: "of interest to descendants of Mary Ann Powell Chenot: Two of her brothers (sorry I do not know which ones) were active in the Underground Railroad during the Civil War, helping escaped slaves on their way to Canada."
