Col. Lewis Powell((6)), son of William((5)), son of
William((4)), son of William((3)), of Cuthbert, son of
William((2)) (6th generation), was born in Prince William Co.,
Va., 1737. In 1763 he bought five hundred acres of land, on part
of which Middleburg now stands. He owned large tracts of land in
Kentucky and was one of the founders of Louisville. He proposed
and was instrumental in building a turnpike from Washington to
Louisville. Indignant at the attempt of the British government
to reduce the colonies to a state of slavery, he became active
in inspiring those around him to a determined resistance to any
encroachments upon American rights. In July, 1777, he was
appointed by General Washington Lieutenant-Colonel of the 16th
Virginia Continentals. In 1788 he was a member of the Virginia
Convention, appointed to ratify the Federal Constitution. In
1798 he was appointed to represent the Loudoun district in the
Federal Congress, then meeting in Pennsylvania. General
Washington was his warm friend, and on a very tempestuous day
had out his riding horse to go across the country and "vote for
his old friend and comrade." His son, Cuthbert Powell, was in
Congress in 1840, of whom Chief Justice Marshall said, "He is
the most talented of that talented family."
Col. Lewis Powell((6)) had two daughters:
Sally Powell((7)). Married William Chilton.
Emily Powell((7)), d. at the age of 17, unmarried.
William Powell((7)). Married Sarah Green, of Maryland.
Burr Powell((7)). Married (1792) Catherine Brooke.
Levin Powell((7)), Jr. Married Elizabeth Orr.
Cuthbert Powell((7)). Married Catherine Simms.
Alfred Powell((7)). Married, first, Sidney Thruston; second,
Elisa Tidball; third, Nancy Kaen; fourth, Miss Harrison, of
Brandon.
Cuthbert Powell((7)) married Miss Simms; was a man of fine
talents and irreproachable character. He represented the Loudoun
district in the Federal Congress in 1842 as a member of the old
Whig party.
He died leaving issue: I. Llewellyn Powell((8)) II. Charles
Powell((8)). III. Cuthbert Powell((8)). IV John Powell((8)). V.
Levin Powell((8)). VI. Ann Powell((8)). VII. Mary Powell((8)).
VIII. Ellen Powell((8)). IX. Jane Powell((8)). X. Fanny
Powell((8)). Jane Powell((8)) married Dr. Frank Grady and had
issue: I. Edward Grady((9)). II. Powell Grady((9)). Married
Susan Gordon Armistead.
Frank Stanley Armistead((9)) (Walker Keith((8)), John((7)),
William((6)), William((5)), Henry((4)), John((3)), William((2)),
Anthony((1))), son of Walker Keith Armistead and Elizabeth
Stanley; son of John Armistead and Lucy Baylor, of New Market,
Caroline Co., Va., a younger brother of General Lewis Armistead.
He was a West Pointer and an officer in the old army; went with
the South and rose to the rank of Brigadier-General. After
attending school in the neighborhood of his country home, the
subject of this sketch, at the age of sixteen, was sent to the
Virginia Military Institute, a school that furnished the
Confederacy many distinguished officers. Here, for two years, it
was his privilege to be under the instruction of Major T. J.
Jackson, better known as "Stonewall," the great Christian genius
of the Civil War.
After graduating, young Armistead went west and was in the Rocky
Mountains when the Civil War began. Although in feeble health,
he made his way south, travelling over three thousand miles, a
good part of the distance riding a mule, and walking for several
hundred miles. He entered the army as a private; was soon
promoted and continued in the service until the end of the
struggle.
After the war he settled at Fort Smith, Arkansas, and soon
afterwards moved to Charleston, Arkansas, where he has since
lived, engaged in farming and merchandising. In the
Brooks-Baxter war he was made Brigadier-General of the Militia,
and placed in command of all the troops in the western part of
the State.
In 1877-79 he represented his district in the State Senate. In
1884 he was sent to the convention at Chicago that nominated Mr.
Cleveland; and in 1892 was elected Secretary of State, and was
reëlected in 1894, a position he now holds.
The will of Thomas Powell dated July 12, 1683, probated February
9, 1687/8, Isle of Wight Co., Vol. 1, p. 40, names as
"legatees…...daughter-in-law Lucretia Corbett." This
Lucretia, relict of Nathaniel Powell, son of Thomas Powell, was
married to John Corbett before 1683 when Thomas' will was
written, and before March 10, 1678, when her deceased husbands
inventory was presented in Isle of Wight County Court, "upon
oath of Lucretia the relict of Nathaniel Powell, dec'd, and now
wife of John Corbitt."
However, Per Patent Book No. 7, p. 21 "Thomas Parnell, 1100
acres Lower Parish Isle of Wight Co. on the south side of
Currawaugh Swamp 20 April 1680, adjoining land formerly taken up
by the said Parnell & Limscott; Robert Lawrence, Jr.; Hodges
Councill's line; and Col. Joseph Bridger's line for the
transportation of 22 persons." John Corbitt was one of the
transports; however, records (see above) indicate that John was
in the colony several years prior to 1680.
