Wm. T. Kell the prosperous merchant at Antioch, Jackson Township, was born in 
Indiana in 1839.  He came with his parents to Lewis County in 1840, and ten 
years later moved to Clark County.  Mr. Kell remained at home until he came of 
age.  In 1862, he was married to Henrietta Clay, and from this union was born 
ten children.  He pursued farming as a vocation until 1878, since which time 
he has been a merchant in the town where he now resides.
During the war, he enlisted in Col. Moore’s militia and served ninety days. In 
1869 at a house raising he was badly hurt by timbers falling on him, rendering 
him unable for active duties for two years or more.  He was at one time 
elected justice of the peace but did not qualify or serve.
Mr. Kell is one of the substantial men of the south part of Jackson Township, 
and enjoys the esteem and respect of all with whom he comes in contact.
