      The Powells moved from Monroe County, Indiana, to Nevada, Missouri, sometime after 1870. They lived in Missouri for a time and later relocated to Aliza, Illinois. Aliza is about five miles east of Muscatine, Iowa. Jesse was a farmer there, owning some 640 acres at one time.

      Nancy Jane died on July 6, 1891, possibly with another child. After her death, Jesse lost most of his wealth . He lived at such places as Wataga, Illinois, and LaCrosse, Wisconsin.
