I know that I have only a 12 marker but my Powell family is from the area just north of Jackson TN. In addition, I have been concerned that the links that have indicated my family moving to the jackson area are very weak and have been looking at how they could have gotten to this area. I wonder if there is anyway there is a relation somehow, somewhere.

Chris, would you consider upgrading to a 37 or 67 marker DNA test? -----Original Message----- From: powell-dna-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:powell-dna-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Chris Powell2 Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2013 2:29 PM To: powell-dna@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [POWELL-DNA] Our Website I know that I have only a 12 marker but my Powell family is from the area just north of Jackson TN.

I would love to find my cousin, Christopher Powell. I believe he was born in Downey, CA. His father was Kenneth Powell, who was my mother's (Kathryn's) brother. Both Kenneth and Kathryn were born in Miami, Florida in 1911 and 1913, respectively. Their father was William Marshall Powell and their mother was Vivian Noreene Beasley. Does anyone happen to know where Christopher might live and how to contact him?

What else you got, Ken?  About when was he born and who was his mother?  Do you have an obituary for his father and if so does it say where he lived? --- On Wed, 4/10/13, Kenneth Collier <uurevken@gmail.com> wrote: From: Kenneth Collier <uurevken@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [POWELL-DNA] Our Website To: powell-dna@rootsweb.com Date: Wednesday, April 10, 2013, 2:55 PM I would love to find my cousin, Christopher Powell.
