POWELL

 

            

                            Comments next to a name are from a Family Tree Scroll which
                            was discovered in a Car Boot Sale in 2007.
                            The names on the scroll were tracked down by the purchaser
                            and it was kindly sent to me.   This led back many centuries and
                            was a valuable find. 

            From the scroll and what I have since found - died - means died infant.
