Get as much information from both sets of grandparents, record your conversations with them if possible, if you are fortunate enough to have greatgrand parents alive question them also. Where are your parents from, the Powell family I am searching for were from South Carolina, migrated to New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pa., I am of African American descent. I hope this will help you, Good luck, Nancy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
