Thanks for the posting, Cynthia! I too am a descendent of Thanks The Lord Shephard. I descend from her daughter, Trial and her husband, Walter POWERS. I continue to add this info to my files. I think this is a great list(aside from the commentaries)! It is one of the most active one that I belong too. Keep up the good work, Cynthia!
