Thank you Lee for the idea about the DNA Test. I have a brother that will take the test in the near future, so like you said, this might be the thing to do. I wish you luck in finding your line of Powells.

If you have a brother or uncle who could get tested it might answer some question. Of course it may create some questions. I know it is a long shot, but dead end can be frustrating. My results should be out next week for VA-4 and I hope it lines me up with one of the lines on the site. -----Original Message----- From: PATRICIA SPRINGER [mailto:SPRINGERPC@msn.com] Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 8:54 PM To: POWELL-L@rootsweb.com<mailto:POWELL-L@rootsweb.com> Subject: [POWELL] Re: NC Powells>Georgia Hello List, Since we are talking about Ga. and some of the counties, would any one on this list be related to a Lewis R.

Would appreciate any info on parents of these 2 brothers, where they might be from in Virginia. Know they go back to Wales at some time. Thank you in advance.

Hi Pat ..... Hannah Powell here...... THE STORY: JOHN CRAWFORD POWELL came to the Sequatchie Valley with 3-of his brothers from Virginia on a flat bottomed boat. He married Phoebe Jackson. "Crafford/Crawford" Powell stayed in what is now Marion County, Tennessee and his brothers went further south. We've been trying to trace Lewis R. (c.1792-) from Virginia to Georgia. Is it possible that he is one of these 3-brothers of John Crawford Powell? Remember that we also have Joseph Powell (1785-1854) who was also born in "Powell Valley" Virginia and lived there on the Tennessee border of Madison/Limestone Alabama and then Giles County Tennessee. One of Lewis R.'s sons "Ambrose/Ambers" also lived in Giles County. Have you looked at this from the Virginia to Tennessee to Georgia direction? This one has been bothering me for a long time because Joseph (1785-1854), Lewis R. (1792-) & Presley Powell could very well fit into this family story. ----- Original Message ----- From: "PATRICIA SPRINGER" <SPRINGERPC@msn.com> To: <POWELL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, February 12, 2005 6:10 PM Subject: Re: [POWELL] Re: NC Powells>Georgia > Thank you Lee for the idea about the DNA Test.
