His aunt Pamelia Marsh Twitchell
Pamelia Marsh was born 20 April 1793 in St. Albans, Franklin, Vermont.[i] Her name was spelled Parmele in the records of St. Albans, but in later census records, it was spelled Parmelia and Pamela. Pamelia is used here because of her brother’s spelling of the name in her obituary.
Her marriage to Timothy William Twitchell was recorded in the St. Albans record, but her first name was either left off or illegible.[ii]
Timothy was born to Daniel and Eunice Child Twitchell in 1791 in Weston, Massachusetts. He served in the War of 1812. Timothy and Pamelia were in Addison County, Vermont, from at least 1820 - 1850, but they moved to Illinois sometime before the 1855 census there.[iii] Timothy was a man of considerable business ability and was engaged in the building of mills and factories, but after a fall that fractured his hip, he visited Illinois where his older children were living. He liked what he saw there, and he encouraged those children still in Vermont to move to Illinois to be with him and his wife.[iv]
Pamelia used the middle name of Anson for one of her boys like her brother's name, James Anson, and she named a son, Julius, after another brother. It would not be surprising if she raised her brother, Julius, as he and his sister, Amanda, were born so close together.

Pamelia died 22 August 1857, 64 yrs., 4m., 2d., and she was buried in Hermitage Cemetery in Rubicon, Greene, Illinois. Timothy died 14 November 1872, 80 yrs., 10m., 24 d., and he was buried in the same cemetery.[v]
Pamelia’s brother, Julius, was living near to her family when she passed away. He wrote to their brother, Joseph Marsh, in Rochester, New York, about Pamelia’s death, and Joseph printed the letter in his newspaper.
"Dear Brother: - It becomes my painful duty to inform you of the death of our sister, Pamelia, wife of Timothy Twitchell. She fell asleep in Jesus, Aug. 22, 1857, aged 64 years, 4 months, and 2 days.
“She has been afflicted with disease for a long time, which terminated in her last illness, viz.: asthmatic consumption.
“She bore her sufferings with great patience, and near the termination of which she was filled with joy so as to shout the praise of God. She frequently repeated the following words of the poet,
“'Jesus can make the dying bed, Feel soft as downy pillows are, While on his breast I lean my head. And breathe my life out sweetly there.'
“Brother Twitchell and the other members of his afflicted family, feel their loss to be irreparably great, yet they mourn not as those who have no hope; for they have the strong assurance, that if they live faithful in the cause of Christ, they will meet her from whom they are now separated by the power of death, in the kingdom of God, where there will be no more sorrow, but eternal life and unending felicity will be the exceeding great reward of the faithful. Your brother & c., J. W. Marsh, Greenfield, Ill., Aug. 22, 1857.”
Joseph then commented:
“Thus another of my father's family has fallen in death. Pamelia, our oldest sister, and dearly beloved by us all. - We resign her to Him- whom she believed, as we have previously resigned our honored parents, and eight brothers. Three brothers and two sisters yet survive of the family, and are 'looking for that blessed hope.' How soon our numbers will be again thinned by death, we know not, but it cannot be long, for the hand of disease and age approaches. - May we be ready, and may the consolation of the Gospel of life comfort the hearts of our brother Twitchell, and his dear family, under the great bereavement they have been called to sustain in the death of sister Pamelia. - Ed."[vi]

Deceased learned the trade of carpenter and emigrated to Illinois in 1844 where he ran a sawmill, worked at his trade, followed farming and taught vocal and instrumental music, besides being leader of three brass bands.... Deceased made three trips from Illinois to Iowa by team, the last of which was made in 1879 when his wife and youngest son accompanied him. In the spring of 1881, he with his family, settled at his late home, and in conjunction with his eldest son, converted the raw prairie into a beautiful farm in which he took great pride. Mr. Twitchell made a profession of religion about 1850 and joined the Baptist church. He was strong in his convictions of right and a friend of the oppressed."

8. Annie Twitchell Oct 1889
IV. Emilius Twitchell 14 Feb 1822 Weybridge, Addison, Vermont. "Emulus" was received into the Weybridge Methodist Church 23 March 1834. He was living with his parents in the 1850 census, and in 1860, he was with his brother, Melvin, in Illinois. He was living with his sister, Wealthy, and her husband in the 1880 census. Emilius must have gone to Iowa shortly after that time as he was buried in the Arlington Cemetery in Moville, Woodbury, Iowa near his brother, Melvin. The *Iowa Graves Project says the person buried there was a female, but it shows Emilius' name with his birth date. He died 24 Jan 1882.
V. Wealthy Pamela Twitchell 4 Feb 1824 Weybridge, Addison, Vermont died 24 July 1886, buried Hickory Grove Cemetery. It would be interesting to know if she was named for her Uncle James' wife after Pamelia received word of her brother's marriage. Wealthy married 8 February 1844 in Whitehall, Greene, Illinois, Edwin Griswold born 7 Dec 1822 in New Haven, Addison, Vermont, to David Everts and Lydia Twitchell Griswold, died 4 March 1907 in Greenfield, Illinois, buried in Hickory Grove Cemetery. Edwin Griswold purchased two pieces of land from Federal sale in Illinois in 1851. The birth information for the children was taken from the Twitchell Family History, and any death information was taken from the Hickory Grove Cemetery Records over the "Morgan Area Genealogy" site on the web.
The Griswold family was a tidy grouping in the *Hickory Grove Cemetery records; there were no other Griswolds listed in the same cemetery. Marion and Damon were not shown there, and they did not appear in any census record. After Wealthy's death, Edwin married (2) Delia Duff 8 June 1887 in Greene County. Edwin and Delia had a son named Damon in June of 1889. There was another Damon born to Edgar and Lucy Griswold in Greene County in the mid 1850's. If there was a birth record for this Damon, the Edgar and Edwin name could have been easily confused. Edgar and Edwin Griswold were sons of *David E. Griswold with a brother named Damon. It appears they both named sons after their brother. I do not know if this information indicates that Edwin and Wealthy had a son named Damon or not. But I left the birth information here as shown in the Twitchell genealogy.
