Author: dashap4a Surnames: Powell, Jones, Lewis Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.powell/6582.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I too am looking for lost Powells in PA, but mine seem to have migrated mainly to the areas of Homestead, Freeland, Poughkeepsie and Philadelphia. They came from Breconshire, Henry born 1829 came here to Australia, but his brother John born 1831 died in Philadelphia and sister Annie born 1836 became Mrs James Lewis and is buried in Freeland and younger sister Mary Ann born 1839 became Mrs John Jones and she is buried in Homestead. If you happen to come across any descendants of any of the above I would love to hear. I will look out for your Powells as I continue my search. Dorothy. North Sydney, Australia.
