To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The Powell family was originally from Wales. Their 72 immigration to this country dates back to the period of the possession of New York by the Dutch. Jacob and Thomas Powell were the sons of Henry Powell, of Hem- stead, L. I. , who, although at one time in affluent cir- cumstances, was reduced to poverty by the vicissitudes of the War of Independence ; and who died when Jacob was 16 and Thomas 12 years of age, leaving them utterly helpless, with the care of a widowed mother. With that energy... which ever after dis- tinguished them, they grappled manfully with adversity; and the lessons which they learned then were their best capital in the active duties of life.
In 1788, Thomas and Jacob, in company with their mother, removed to the County of Orange, and settled near Washingtonville, where their industry led to some increase of property. In 1791, they removed to Marl- borough, Ulster County, where the brothers opened a small store and erected some lime kilns, and engaged successfully in the production and sale of lime.
