=====================

Hicksville in the 1870s was still a relatively small agricultural and railroad community rather than the large suburban center it later became. Many local families were farmers, merchants, or connected with the Long Island Rail Road and produce trade.The Powell surname has deep roots on Long Island, particularly in central Nassau County. Descendants of the early Long Island Powell family were found throughout the Farmingdale, Bethpage, Hicksville, and Oyster Bay areas during the 18th and 19th centuries.
