Lieutenant Daniel Powers

Daniel Powers was born on May 10, 1669 in Littleton, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. (n.b. see slightly contradictory source citations below.) His parents were Walter Powers and Trial Shepard.

He was a business man of prominence in Shirley. He was a lieutenant in the French and Indian War.

He married his first wife, Elizabeth Whitcomb on April 8, 1702. Elizabeth was the daughter of Jonathan and Hannah Whitcomb. She was born in 1676 in Littleton. Her mother was killed by Indians in 1692.

Daniel and Elizabeth had five children. They were all born in Nashobe (Littleton), although some of them are recorded in Groton. Their children were Daniel Powers (1703), Jonathan Powers (1704), Oliver Powers (1705), Peter Powers (1707) and Hannah Powers (1709). Elizabeth died February 22, 1709 probably as a complication of childbirth.

He married Martha Bates in 1711. Martha and Daniel's children were William Powers (April 12, 1712), Sapheron Powers (1714), Timothy Powers (1716), and Jerahmeel Powers (February 18, 1718).
