Hello Cricket, Sorry to hear you are leaving the board as administrator. Several months back I read your response to Nathan Dowell wherein you said you just might know folks that are working the same Dowell line as his. About two months ago I asked you if you could let me know who those folks might be. My Dowell line is the same as Nathan's and ascends from William Morton Dowell, Alonzo Henry Dowell, George Martin Dowell, and George Dowell who married Polly Tomberlin (Cherokee Indian blood). You said to remind you if I did not hear back from you. Any names you can provide me that are working on my on my Dowell ancestors would be appreciated. Thanks. Neva Dowell Whiles
