My g great graandfather, Andrew Jackson Powell, was born somewhere in Georgia about 1827. He married a Mary born in Tennessee before 1843 or there about. They had one of those"Johns" too. I believe he was the first born. Now, what I want to know is, does anyone out there has any idea where in Georgia, Andrew J. Powell was born or who his parents were? There were two sons. John H. and Humphries. John had two sons: Sealberry J. and William. William was probably named for John's wife's father as his name was William. Sealberry isn't a common name and doesn't appear anywhere else in my line. Humprhries also seems to appear only the one time and he does not appear to have married. Help appreciated, Virginia in Seattle
