Andrew Jackson Powell, on of Bates County's boldest citizens, died at his home in the east pa rt of this city Saturday morning, March 31st, (1928), after an extended illness due to the in firmities of age.
He was a native Missourian, having been born in Shelby County, 91 years ago. In 1867 h e came to Bates County and located on a farm in Lone Oak township, where he resided until a f ew years ago when he moved to this city, where he has since resided. "Uncle Jack," as he wa s familiarly known to his friends, was a quiet unassuming gentleman and one of the last of th ose rugged pioneers who helped in the rebuilding of this community after it had been ravage d by years of border warfare. He was a devoted, self-sacrificing husband and father and a go od citizen whose passing will be mourned by a large circle of friends. During the Civil Wa r he served with the 7th Missouri Cavalry.
He is survived by one son, Lee Edgar Powell, three daughters, Mrs. Lucetta P. Cobb, Mrs . Clara Stokes and Mrs. Alta Warren, all of this city. His wife preceded him in death abou t six weeks.
Funeral services were conducted from the home of his daughter, Mrs. Alta Warren, on Harr ison Street, Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock by Rev. G. L. Chapman, of Altoona, Kansas, an ol d neighbor of his in Lone Oak township.
