Alice M Shackford, the daughter of William Henry Shackford and Mary Augusta Smart was born in Barnstead, New Hampshire on Feb 14, 1873. In June 1880 she was living in Barnstead with her parents and two siblings where her father worked as a hotelkeeper.
Alice was working as a sticher when she married Harry Lewis Powell, a shoemaker on October 27, 1894.
They remained in Barnstead living with Alice’s step grandmother in 1900 – he worked as a stock fitter in a shoe shop and she as a forelady in a shoe shop
Sadly, Alice died at the age of 32 on June 28, 1905 of a long term heart condition which seems to have been diagnosed when she was about 17 years old. She was buried in Riverview Cemetery in Barnstead. Her husband Harry Lewis Powell remarried widow Mary E (Emery) Higgins in August 1930.
