The name has carried down in my family as a middle name, and we trace back to the several Dempseys, but I am having a time sorting out which one is which, and which of the wives is the bio mom of MY Dempsey. I would be thrilled to have a copy of the letter and hope it will shed light on my mysteries.

Do you have a high resolution scan or a photocopy of that "Genealogy of the Powells" that you could scan or mail me? I can provide details if you can. <br />Thanks, <br />Matthew Yates ImagesInBluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05741990858775829064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7623064849979633236.post-87145508294028882322019-01-12T06:54:26.544-08:002019-01-12T06:54:26.544-08:00I am three or four generations removed from any me...I am three or four generations removed from any men who would have the Powell surname, and I have not corresponded with anyone that does. I am part of the Ancestry.com DNA Circle for Benjamin Powell, but none of my matches appear to be Powell men. I also checked my Family Finder matches on FTDNA (and my brother's) for possible Powell men but didn't find any that I could definitely tie to my Powell line. Sorry!

My late husband David Powell was in the "Gold Group" as it was known in the Powell DNA Project. Unfortunately the public Y-DNA Project page had to be taken offline because of the new privacy rules of FamilyTree DNA. His ancestor was Benjamin Bridges Powell, b. abt 1801 in TN, but could be AL. He migrated to Greene Co., IL by 1830. Men that match his Y-DNA descend from Thomas Powell of Isle of Wight County, Va. in the mid 1600s. And I believe that Dempsey Powell is related to him, but not the Dempsey who is referred to on your blog. <br />Thanks.<br />Elaine Hatfield Powell<br />www.TheHeritageLady.com Elaine Hatfield Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14504853821028747289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7623064849979633236.post-4010827039131030962017-07-18T18:50:15.026-07:002017-07-18T18:50:15.026-07:00That's great to hear!
