Surnames: Powell, Mitchell, Jenkins Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/WOBBAIB/12.48.181.2 Message Board Post: I believe that Cader Powell of Bertie Co, NC was the son of George Powell. "Ct Records of Bertie Co NC abstracted by Haun 11 May 1736 ~ The Last Will & Testament of George Powell was proved by the oaths of Wm. Moor, Charles Horne, Edmd Todd? the subscribing witnesses there to & Kadar Powell Exr. took the Exrs. Oath." I don't have the full text of George's will. Wish that I did... but it leads me to believe that Cader was his son. I also don't know where the information/proof of Mary Williams comes from. Here's an interesting tidbit: 8 Feb 1742 ~ Cader Powell proved his Rights to wit: Cader Powell, Elizh Powell, Susannah Powell, Mary Powell, Ann Powell, Charity Powell, Rebekah Powell, Susannah Powell, Elizh Powell, whites & Jack, Sambo & Bob blacks. (2 Elizabeths and 2 Susannahs ? Cader, Jr born after 1742 - MAM) Cader led a fairly public life. He served on several juries. His land probably was on land that became Hertford Co as a deed made in 1768 witnessed by Cader, Jr refers to him as Cader Powell of Hertford. He served as a Vestryman of St Barnabas Parish, Hertford Co in 1771. Here's another interesting tidbit: Chowan Co NC Deed Bk A-1 pg 227, Feb 28 1742 Cader Powell deeded to Robert Powell his half of land that had been given to George Powell and Robert Powell by John Powell. This suggests to me that George and Robert were brothers and that John was possibly their father. I believe that Cader, Jr married Mary Jenkins, daughter of James Jenkins (1726 - 1796 Bertie Co, NC). Frances Foote was married to another Cader Powell not this one. I also believe that one of Cader, Jr's older sisters was the first wife of William Mitchell and the mother of his son Cader Mitchell. Cader Mitchell married the sister of Mary Jenkins Powell, Elizabeth Jenkins. That makes the Cader Powell, Cader Mitchell's uncle and brother-in-law. To make matters even cozier, Cader Mitchell's 1/2 sister Winnie married Mary and Elizabeth Jenkins brother James, Jr. I have just recently started looking at this family, so I would appreciate any help!

I have a pretty good paper trail for the above James Powell, but I am stumped as to his parentage. He was born in Lincoln, GA and married to Lucinda Ashmore. Has anyone researched this family and do you have a sense of where the parents originated? I need a place to start. Thanks Cathy

There are several other POWELLs listed nearby his home as follows: page 276 Lewis POWELL, page 278 James POWELL, page 279 Sampson POWELL, page 281 John POWELL, page 282 Benjamin POWELL, page 282 Silas POWELL, page 283 William POWELL, page 286 James POWELL, page 276 Quinney POWELL, page 278 James POWELL. Is this your William? I also find that Quinney did several land transactions in Randolph Co. GA (below). My 4th great grandmother Nancy Ann POWELL (Quinney's daughter with Patsey HICKS) married one of their next door neighbors, Johnson MATHEWS (MATHIS). Johnson was from Cumberland Co. NC, and was son of John Hardy MATHEWS b. 1749 Edgecombe Co. NC. Additionally, Quinney had past transactions with Johnson. I don't know what happened to Johnson MATHEWS first wife (Milly Cawfield and children), but later married Nancy Ann POWELL, Quinney's daughter. Nancy's mother was Patsey HICKS who was a 100% Cherokee Indian woman who had grown up in Indian Territory. We do not know what happened to Patsey HICKS.

Here is what I have at this point and would really appreciate verification if any of you know of these POWELLS. Thanks! 1) SOURCE - Virginia Hanks - "Childers-Childress Family Association" - Deeds - APPOMATOX and UPER SAPPONIE CREEK (VA) - JOHN and MARGERY POWELL CHILDRESS of INDIANA TO JESSE BLAND of AMHERST COUNTY (VA), LAND BEQUEATHED TO JOHN CHILDRESS by WILL OF THOMAS POWELL, 18 March, 1783.

Would anyone on this board know of these Powells? I've done a search for a MARGERY POWELL and have not found any mention of the Christian name whatsoever. Nor have I found a marriage of a JOHN CHILDRESS to Margery POWELL. I did find POWELLS married to the above, along with JOPLING. As you can see, Ms Virginia Hanks publication states they (John and Margery Powell Childress) were living in INDIANA when they received the land in Amherst Co. (VA) but, Gary Childress states they were in TENNESSEE when they received the land. Anyone have a comment or can verify? Was there a MARGERY POWELL and whose daughter was she? The JOPLINGS, WARES, CHILDRESS did marry into the POWELL family, but I can't confirm the JOHN CHILDRESS above. MaryJean

Dear List Members, This list is NOT for the discussion of how to post a correct message. If you feel that a suggestion is needed contact me personally. Do not post your suggestion to the list. If the suggestion is a good one, I will add it to my periodic updates. This list is to large for us to begin conversations on off topic subjects, and correct message posting is an off topic subject and I consider this type of posting spam. If in the future this type of message is posted, I would appreciate if you would just delete it and not post your thoughts regarding it back across the list. I appreciate each of you and know this list is the success it is because of you. Kathleen Burnett List Mom

You missed the point. I really am interested in West Virginia POWELLs, and I was disappointed when the message had nothing to do with the subject. Had the subject indicated a far away state or country, I would probably have used my delete button. I'm still wondering who on earth this Floence Powell is, when she lived in WV, etc. It's helpful for the subject to match the message and, vice versa.

I also think that it's a good idea to indicate something abut the message in the subject line, but, pray tell, what does "FLORENCE POWELL OF WV" have to do with your message?

May I kindly suggest that it would be so much more beneficial if the subject lines stated the names or places related to the message rather than "info needed" for instance. Those of us who use the Digest only look at the subject lines to read the messages; if the subject line does not interest me, I do not have the time to read the message...in this case, I did...only because there was only one message to read.
