Hello Carlette, Good to hear from you again. The msn website was mine, but not enough people were accessing it, so they took it down (it was free). I still have more things to scan. I contacted the drt last year, and they forwarded my email, but no one has ever responded. I just sent another request. Maybe if you send one too, the prospect of TWO new cousins might make the person get more excited! For all the other Powells on this list, keep looking out for us to find a male descendant! Thanks for your help.

Pam and Carlette, You might contact by email the DRT Library...a different web site, I believe...and they will send you a list of 'researchers'. They, of course, won't recommend one, but they do have a list of people who live close to the library and who will go in and do the 'footwork' for you. At the price of gasoline, it's worth every penny!
