Ray, I'm sending copies on this, so others will see it on the Wayne Co List... I have no known (at this time!) to the 2 HOWELL sisters, but I have seen those given in records..... Your tracking of ROBERT PEACOCK b Wayne Co, moving to Twiggs Co, then Houston Co & then Lowndes Co, GA is very interesting - as there are HOWELLs also in Houston Co, GA - not any connection again to mine that is known, but I do know of a lady down there (this is middle GA) an Addie Howell who did research on HOWELLs - my sis has talked to her in the past & we had no knowledge at that time of a connection to hers. Then on the Lowndes Co, Ga connection - there are so many HOWELLs there... I was told by one that all the HOWELLs in that area were connected but just how was unknown....Very frustrating! I've even met a son of a HOWELL (mar a FOX) from Lowndes Co, GA & this son's nickname is "Bucky" - my Dad's name was HARRY LEE HOWELL, but was known all his life as "Buck"! So many "almosts" & just so many confusing HOWELLs! Thanks for your questions, tho - it's always good to have to consider & reconsider! I'll go check out that source site & thanks again!
