Those same names run in my Thomas Powell of Chester Co. PA. family. 1792-1873. John, Thomas, Samuel and Joseph. Then they threw in a Lewis and an Allen! Son Samuel had a son John who in turn had son and grandson John. I have tried to prove John and Catherine Powell as parents of Thomas Sr. No information so far. Mary A.
