INTRODUCTION

In this folder are copies of a few of the valuable records which I have collected on the descendants of
Thomas Powell, Sr. and his wife,Nancy Chaney (Cheney), early pioneers of Nicholas County,

Kentucky It is not intended that this should take the place of a family history, but rather that these
records be made available to all those who might have an interest in this line of Powell’s,

Those interested in a family history of the descendants of Thomas Powell, Sr. and Nancy Chancy
will be pleased to know that one is now being compiled and soon will be ready for publication.
Reservations for your copy may be placed with the author:

Mrs. Carl Johnson
2109 Skyline Drive
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, 74003

If you find these records to be a help to you, I would appreciate hearing about it. I would like
especially to hear from other Powell descendants whom I haven’t contacted previously, thus making
our records more complete.

POWELL FAMILY RECORDS
(Compiled by Mrs. Robert Potts)

Information from the Indiana State Library in regard to A. Pauly and Jonathan Martin
found in the Powell Church records, Indian Grove, MO., who baptized the Powell family:

“We have found some information in Early Life and Times in Boone County Indiana,
compiled by Harden & Spahr, Lebanon, Ind., 1887. Arice Pauly was a deacon in Pleasant
View Church, which was organized in Jefferson Township, Boone County, in 1836 (p. 222-
225). Jonathan Martin was a minister in the Old Union Church, which was organized in
1838 in Jackson Township, Boone County, nine miles southwest of Lebanon, Indiana.
Neither of these churches is still active, (1959) according to the Indiana Baptist
headquarters office here in Indianapolis. They are sorry that they do not know where or if
the old records are still in existence.”
