Thank you Gail, Dolores and Karlene for your welcomes to this list and quick responses to my query. I have done some research on these lines but have run into the proverbial brick wall. I would really like to find more info on Thomas Powell. And his wife, Mary. Would like to find her maiden name. I am sure one day someone will uncover the information. On the Arter family I also have bits and pieces. It is fun though finding new cousins and others who are working on these families. Kathy Kiley
