My ancestor is James POWELL born 1772 in Wales, he married Mary Moore there in about 1800 and they later emigrated to America with 3 or 4 children. By 1822 this family had settled in Richland County Ohio and developed their farm. James died Nov 28, 1858 and is buried in Franklin Township just north of Mansfield, Ohio. Mary and James had eleven children of which Margaret is my gg-grandmother. She married Jessie Huston in 1831. The other children are: Matilda, Nancy, William, John, Abner, James, Jane, Myers, David and Mary. Names of their spouse include Terman, Cline, McConaghy, Modi, and Schumaker.
