****************************************************************************************** This info came from Betty Hartman about the Powers Cemetery in Medley, WV My dad, Edgar Maywood Paugh, died Jan 1984, and we had taken him over to the cemetery before he passed away thinking maybe he would remember some things, since that is where he grew up. That was the home of Eli Acem and Ann Mariah Harris Powers. Dad's mother cora died 1903 and Dad was only about 6 yrs old, so the grandparents, Eli and Ann Mariah took the children and raised them.
