From Estill Co. Circuit Court Records, Aug. 30, 1825, Thomas Powell Jr., married with Hannah, lived as man and wife, raised a large family, Hannah left his bed and has not lived with him for years and he believes before Hannah left, she lived in adultery with other men and still continues since she left. Wants divorce. Answer of Hannah, says charges is false and unsound, since marriage she continued to live with him as a constant, stubiful and affectionate wife not withstanding the cruel abrasive and inhuman treatment. The complainant abandoned and left her in a very destitute helpless situation with a large family of small children. This was the third time the complainant left her and the family with the intention of abandoning them. Since abandonment, with the assistance often of her children, has raised a large crop and occurred a little property and now is threatened to take it away. Wants him refrained from the children.
