Mitchell Family History 1700 to Present by Helen Mitchell Daniels,
Columbus, Ohio October 1980. In 1871 George J and Almira Lawrence
Mitchell bought 640 acres of land in Shawnee County, Kansas and moved
there with family. The deed to this land designates it as: "All of
Section seven, Township ten, South of Range fifteen East, Shawnee County,
Kansas (with other lands)." Topeka Land Association. Original owners
of
this land were the United States and the Pottawatomie indians who sold
it, for one dollar per acre to the Santa Fe Railroad in 1869. Thomas
Ewing Jr. (brother-in-law), bought the land and in turn sold it to
George
J. Mitchell. The homestead has been owned by Mitchell's and is now
owned
by 5th generation, Robert Lee Mitchell. .
