    3. Kits B1216 & 257868 have been added with 37 and 67 markers.  These kit are for Young brothers, but they have several 37 marker matches with some of our Powell kits.  They are in Haplogroup I2b1.   They have told me, "The name of most distant ancestor is Cleo Young, born in Alcorn County, Mississippi on 16 Jun 1907.  Cleo Young died in Jackson, TN in 1968. We do not have any proof of any Powell ancestry but we believe that Cleo Young’s father was a Powell. I suspect it is William Hennon Powell born in Rienzi, Alcorn, Mississippi September 1872.   If you have William Hennon Powell in your family please contact these men.  Their e-mail address can be found in your match list if you match them.  You can post here or you can send me a message to forward to them.   Thanks.
