Richard, I don't find a Jesse in my database. If we can find the parents and uncles of "Drewry" maybe we can solve the problem. Maybe "Drewry" had an Uncle Powell for whom he named his son. I don't think it is a very common name. Maybe there was a Powell surname in the family. Food for thought. Maybe someone has already found "Drewry's" parents and will be so kind to share them with us.

He was a Veteran of the War Of 1812, from Tennessee. He had a son named William R. SINKS. There was a Drewry SINKS that also might have been his son. Does anyone know if Jesse SINKS had any connection with Powell SINKS, who died in Dickson County, Tennessee, in 1826? ------------------------------------ Richard A.
