After the 1828 schism among the Friends, the Sempronius meeting lasted about 15 or so years till membership was too low to support meetings and the meetinghouse... along the way the Jacob Powell family was for some reason disowned from the Scipio Monthly Meeting, and then probably went to a closer church in Locke or Summerhill... There were Baptist, Methodist and Congregational churches in buggy riding distances from their home... List compiled by Loren Fay for a part of his booklet about the Sempronius Meeting of Friends, which he did in 1986... (out of print.)

The * means they were later disowned from the Scipio Monthly Meeting, but they lived on in Summerhill, NY...
