051 Thomas P. Powell Sing Sing Westchester NY The namesake is in question.

The Post disbanded in 1868

(before Posts adopted

namesakes), and was succeeded

by Powell Post, No. 117, which

was named for two brothers.

Org. 1866 Dis. 1868 The GAR Records Catalog initially listed this Post as "Thomas P.

Powell" Post, No. 51, but after further investigation, it appears to

have been named for two brothers (see namesakes for Powell

Post, No. 117). The Post was succeeded by an independent

veterans' association which was instrumental in erecting a soldier's

monument on Main Street in 1872. Although reported as having

disbanded in 1868, the members of the Post observed Memorial

Day in May 1869.
