This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: POWELL Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/WOBBAIB/5226.1.1 Message Board Post: Thanks for your reply, Laurae. My Sam and Maggie were rather nomadic so they didn't live in just one county, although they seem to have stayed in the south Jersey area. It's possible Margaret may have died in Tabernacle, which is Burlington Co., but I have no idea where Samuel died. I'll have to check the library for obits - that is a very good idea. I've already looked through the Federal censuses and although I found a Samuel Powell in Pemberton in 1880, when I followed him through to later censuses I discovered he was not the right one. Thanks again for the offer to help. Just keep me in mind as you research your family, and if you find anything feel free to send it to my e-mail address. I don't want to take up your time researching my family, but you never know what you'll find in your travels! Jeanne
