I understand from old accounts that there is a 'Powell Family Cemetery' in Wilkes County near their old family home. How would I go about locating the site of that cemetery (which I presume is near Parsonville) and also the location of John Martin Powell's previous residence/property? Since my gggg'father and grandmother lived at the end of their life with John Martin I'm assuming they are buried in the family cemetery or nearby. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I hope to visit the area and would like some guidance on where to go. Bill Powell
