From "History of Butler County, Pa." -- "Joseph Powell, son of Joseph and Sophia Powell, was born in Beaver county in 1827. His youthful days were spent upon his father's farm, and he came with his parents to Lancaster township. When his father died, he inherited the old homestead, consisting of 120 acres of land, near the village of Middle Lancaster, where he has since been engaged in farming. In 1856 he married Susan Moyer, and they are the parents of fourteen children, as follows: Tillie, wife of James Mercer; Agnes, wife of John Wier; William; James; Julia A., deceased; Samuel; Bell, wife of Charles Crawford; Nettie, wife of Samuel Bauder (or Bander); Celia; Curtis; Joseph; Sophia, deceased; and two that died in infancy.
