Jessica, I didn't find your kit number with the Powell's. Did you match someone else. Frances In a message dated 7/22/2008 12:13:29 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: My father, Billy Gene Powell (1949) dna, born in California (Parents are both from Oklahoma) Kit #N63296 Billy (Bill) was Hanford Powell's son. Hanford had two biological children, Jimmie (female) and Billy Powell. He adopted four more children... His father, Jimmie or James Powell had several children from two different wives, those are Willie, Hanford, Jesse, Edna, Cecil, Elise and more.... His father Thomas had Billy and Jimmie. P.S. The name Billy, Jimmie, James, and Thomas are repeated continually.. and usually their middle names are Gene, Eugene, G. And.. my father says, that to throw people off they always named their first born boys anything ending in IE or Y. (Helps the confused madness). My Grandfather said on his tapes that there was a Stuart that came over to US from England/Scotland and married a Native, changing his name to Powell.. that's were the Powell begins (don't really know why Powell.. ?) It's said that his son, had a Native name and the soldiers (native english speakers) couldn't pronounce his name and therefore called him Billy Powell (Don't know exact root of that).. And from there.. my great-grandfathers continued to marry either Natives or Blacks.. (Stuarts son was a half breed and not allowed to marry a white person, therefore continued to marry within his mother's race).... Billy Powell's son was said to be from his second wife, a freed slave. That is all oral recording from my Grandfather.. and I have yet to substantiate it... I got a hold of book about Billy Powell's geneology and hopefully will see what I can make of it... :) Thanks, Jessica ~Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?~ ****When I give food to the poor they call me a saint.
