Powell, Missouri

Albert E. Brumley's best known song, "I'll Fly Away" has been recorded by multiple Grammy Award-winning musicians and even inspired the name of a television series.

Brumley also started an annual, though now defunct, Hill and Hollow craft fair and concert in a field next to his house in Powell.

[5] Through the years such celebrities as Minnie Pearl and Grandpa Jones, of country music and Hee Haw fame, performed at the venue.

Brumley, along with his wife, the former Goldie Schell, are buried in Fox Cemetery just outside Powell, along with other local pioneers.

[6] Several older structures still exist in the community, but are no longer in use, such as the First Baptist Church building, the Hill and Hollow exhibit hall and an old gas station.
