O'Dell, John S., a native of Washington county, born May 31, 1845, is the second of two sons and one daughter
of James and Hannah (Williams) O'Dell, natives of Washington county. They came to Marion in 1866, and settled on
the farm now owned by our subject. James O'Dell was a shoemaker by trade, at which he worked in Washingtnn county,
but he had a farm. The grandparents were James and Sallie O'Dell, of Washington county. He was a carpenter and
millwright by trade. He went from Washington county to Onondaga and thence to Alleghany county, where he died.
The paternal great grandfather was Solomon Dutcher of Washington county. The father of our subject remains on the
farm till the death of his wife, September 27, 1887. Soon after he sold the farm to his son John J., and returned
to his native county, where he still resides aged seventy eight years. Our subject tarried in 1878 Emma E., daughter
of Edwin Curtis of Marion, and they have one daughter, Hattie, born July 6, 1883. Mr. O'Dell's farm consists of
one hundred acres, and he follows general farming and fruit growing.
