***************************************
*ARTHUR POWER
Farmington, Michigan historical data has Arthur's birth in Providence, Rhode Island. His parents and two older brothers came to the British Colonies from England. His brothers died in the Revolutionary War.
After his father's death, he and his mother moved to South Adams Massachusetts from Rhode Island. "Restless, Power eventually struck out on his own" and went to New York. He purchased land with the $100 his mother gave him. He married Deborah Aldrich. They had 11 children. They had a successful farm and were with the "Society of Friends (Quaker) Community." The Power family was very active and devout in their faith.
After Deborah's death, Arthur remarried. He married Mary Dillingham. They had two daughters, Duana and Deborah. After Mary's death, Arthur decided to head west.
In 1823, he purchased land in Oakland County, Michigan. Eventually, he had 2000 acres in Sections 22, 27 and 28.
On February 1, 1824, Arthur permanently left Ontario County, New York. His travel party included his sons John and Jared, and two hired hands, David Smith and Daniel Rush. His son, Nathan, and daughter, Mary, were left in NY to manage the farm and take care of the younger children.
The trip took a little over a month, through Canada, by horse-drawn sleigh, crossing the Niagara River. They arrived in Windsor, Canada on February 15th. They crossed the frozen Detroit River, got supplies in Detroit and continued along the Saginaw Trail (now Woodward Ave.) to their final destination - on March 8th, which is now 11 Mile Rd and Power Rd.
Arthur was the founder of the Village of Farmington, later the city of Farmington (1926).
Arthur built a potash (soap) works (1825), using the upper Rouge River as a power source. He built a saw mill (1826), and a grist mill on Shiawassee Rd (1828). They were replacing log homes with frame homes. He was a builder.
In 1826, Arthur built his third and final home. He was reunited with his son Nathan in June 1826. Nathan made the journey in 10 days. He arrived in Detroit on the HENRY CLAY out of Buffalo, NY.
Arthur married a third time. He married Sarah Lawton. She helped him raise his three youngest children.
Arthur died on Consumption (TB), possibly complicated by pneumonia.
