The family notes handed down state a maiden name of Morris. But this article gives her father to be David Lynch.
“ Levi T. Voshell owns a splendid farm of three hundred acres in Caroline County and another place comprising over two hundred acres in Talbot County, his home being on the former estate which though his oversight and excellent management has been brought to rank among the best farms of the fourth district. Farming has been his life work and of it he has made a noticeable success, which is especially creditable when we take into consideration the fact that he began with absolutely nothing.
The grandfather of our subject, William Voshell, was born in Delaware, to which state his father, William Sr. came from France. The latter was a son of Obadiah Voshell, whose father; Levi Voshell accompanied Lafayette to America and served in the war of the Revolution. Two other brothers also took part in the war with England. Our subject’s father seemed to inherit the soldierly qualities of his ancestors for we find him enlisting in the war of 1812, where he rendered brave service. He was the third in direct line who bore the name of William and was a native of Delaware, where he engaged in farming until his death at the age of sixty-three. His wife Anne, was a daughter of David Lynch who emigrated from England to Delaware; five children were born to them, namely William H of Oxford; Levi T.; John W., of McPherson County, Kan.; Samuel who makes his home in Monterey, Cal.; and Ruth A., deceased. After the death of William Voshell his widow married John Young, and their union a son was born, Robert E., now of Easton.
In Kent County, Del., our subject was born in 1835 and there he grew to manhood upon a farm. In 1860 he married Miss Frances, daughter of William S Vane, and a consecrated Christian woman, whose death February 21, 1907, was a heavy loss to Mr. Voshell, whose loving companion she had been for so many years. The children born to their union were named as follows: William, a resident of Talbot County; Mary, who married Harry W Snow, Sarah E., wife of John B Dulin; Ulysses G., Ira S., Levi, Frances F., Rebecca C. and Lida R.
Locating in Talbot County in 1866, Mr. Voshell made his home upon a farm near Easton until 1892 and then came to Caroline County, where he owns a valuable place near Choptank. For nine months during the war he was a member of the Union army, having enlisted in 1863 as a member of Company F, Sixty Delaware Infantry. Politically he favors Republican principles and always votes the ticket of his party. In religious belief he and his family are connected with the Methodist Episcopal Church.” Page 805 Portrait and Biographical Record.
