We are looking for descendants of Cyrus Powell 1825 SC, and Allen Powell 1789 NC>SC>GA or any male Powells descended from this group to help sort these Powell's and their descendants to the correct families. ALLEN POWELL's 1822 SC results won't be posted for about 6 weeks. But to take a look at the project go to www.flash.net/~parino/powell-surname-dna-project.htm I know I have seen Allen 1822 SC listed in several different unrelated families .
