I have Lewis Powell & Cader Powell in my linage but I'm not back to NC yet. I'm in SC (ABT.1780) but I think we are headed to NC. I've about decided my Powell line is of Moses Powell but would like a little more documentation to be sure. I've had to work back from Texas, La, Miss, Ala, Ga, SC. My Powell line didn't rush to Tex, they kinda took their sweet time getting here. They would live ten years in one state & then move to the next state & stay for another ten years & t hen move again - but always moving west. I finally found their graves after a ten years search. They are buried in Hill co Tx about a 2 hour drive from me. Please tell me about your Powell line. Ruth B

I have quite a bit of info on these Powells. and do feel they are from the Moses Powell lines and they Williams around them everywhere they go it seems.

Ruth, My Powells are buried in Hood Co., TX. Working back they were in Scott and Logan Cos., AR, Tallapoosa Co., AL, Muskogee Co., GA and Columbia Co., GA starting Isaac Powell born there 15 May 1796. Before that I would guess North and South Carolina. I descend from William George Washington Powell, one of Isaac's sons.
