Hi Jim, Has kit 254387 ordered additional markers? I see he is in the Gold group but no pedigree as yet.

I got on FTDNA and looked at the Marker Map. 12 Marker I have one exact match with a Powell last name, 2 Powells in the 1-Step. 25 markers I have one exact match but surname is not Powell. 37 markers no exact match, closest is 4-Step but still surname is not Powell. So what does this mean? I'm sorry...I know you didn't take me to raise. Any help or guidance would greatly be appreciated.

I would appreciate if anyone can provide/confirm the line of Honorias Jr. b.c. 1695 thru his son Thomas Powell c. 1730, continuing as follows: Ambrose Powell 1761 Jesse Powell 1792 Francis Marion Powell 1824 (this is Not Francis MariAn Powell, note the a vs. o in the spelling). Ancil Powell 1864 Walter Powell 1900 Walter E. Powell 1931 Ancil thru Walter E. are confirmed. Ancil relocated from Ga. to Harlan County, KY when coal mining in Ga. came to an end. Walter E. served as a US Congressman in the early 1970s. He represented SW Ohio. Thanks, Larry

If there is a Gary L. Powell on this DNA site, would you please contact Margie E. (Powell) Gorman OFF LINE at: fuzzysgirl38@yahoo.com<mailto:fuzzysgirl38@yahoo.com> Margies email will probably double when I send this, so write in her address to the first .com, and delete the added email address. Thank you. PPS

Ok, Jim, now what? I don't mean to sound like an idiot but my inexperience with all this is a handicap with understanding this.

Stacey,   If you sign into your myFTDNA website you'll see that you belong to the WAMH (Western Atlantic Modal Haplotype - western Atlantic when in Europe).  This means you have a VERY common Haplotype.  If you click on the Y-DNA tab on FTDNA's toolbar and then click on Matches you'll see that you have 2969 matches, the most distant of which will be a genetic distance of one (you can differ by a value of one on one marker with a Powell).   What this really tells you is that you need to wait for more markers to be reported.  As you get you 25 marker results and your 37 marker results your matches will drop off rapidly and they will be much more meaningful.   I suggest that you click on the My Account tab and then on Match and E-mail Settings and click on No under the Y-DNA12 Matches and Y-DNA25 Matches.  This will greatly reduce the number of e-mails you'll receive about matches.  When you get your 37 marker results and match e-mail about them they can be meaningful.   When looking at your 12 marker matches on your myFTDNA website you can enter the Powell surname in the last name box, click on Run Report and your matches will be reduced to 8.  Three at 0 steps (genetic distance) and 5 at 1 step.  You'll want to watch these as your additional markers are reported.  Unfortunately two of these people have only tested to 12 markers so we know they will disappear at the next level.  The other six have tested to at least 37 markers.   Just sit tight and wait for additional markers to be report.  As they come in be sure to keep asking questions.
