For many years John Daniel Powell lived in Kenosha, WI and worked at Simmons Company.

His parents are unknown and are listed as from Lithuania on both his 1930 and 1940 census records. However, a theory currently needs to be proven that Charles and Constance Paulausky from Lithuania who resided in Waukegan, IL are his parents. On their 1940 census John is listed with his 3rd wife Ellen "Ella" Grace Irving Borkenhagen Powell and a Constantine Poloski, which appears to be a misspelling of Paulausky. On 8 Sept 1936 The Sheboygan Press has an article on the wedding of Jospehine Petkus and Joseph Strohmeyer among the guests who came are Mr and Mrs Charles Paulausky and Mrs Inez Powell, John's second wife.

His first wife was Lillian Klipfel.
They had two children
1. Virginia Powell born 4 Apr 1915 she married Louis August Nichols
2. Vernon Powell who was 3 and 0/12's in the Jan 1920 census based on that he was either born in Dec 1916 or Jan 1917.

Virginia and Vernon are listed with their mother Lillian and stepfather Michael Prusynski on the 1930 census.

His second wife was Inez Maude Knowlton.
They had one son
Ronald Irwing Powell born in 1930. On the 1930 census John, Inez and Ronald lived in Waukegan, IL.
