Hello John, We have several Francis/Frances Powell's in our line of Powells, but think they might be a little older than your Francis. We have the name of Ambrose, Keziah, Morning, Green Oliver, Lewis R., Lewis Ervin, James Lewis, Lewis James, Newton, Sevier, Leander or Lee Andrew, and many others that could be Irish, Welsh or English. Seems like here in the US we have less Francis Powell's though. Would like to help you find your connection to your Francis Powell through a few websites, including the Powell DNA site. Please contact me off line at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>, for more information.
