Ruth, My Powell connection is from Sarah ____ and John Powell, Sr. who moved from VA to Jones County, GA, around 1812. In 1856 they moved south to the upper part of Clinch County, which is now Lanier County. Most of the next few generations also lived in this area. Take care, Janette Powell McBride Bulloch Co.
