• Notes

  These website may provide information on what George Powell calls "Baptist Church of Christ, Hickory Creek" on page 239 of his book. I am not sure these websites are for the same church, although the location seems the same. Nor am I sure the John Powell noted as "preacher before 1840" is the same John Powell but some names mentioned on these website also are mentioned in George's book (i.e. Stroud). http://www.therestorationmovement.com/oldphilhist.htm http://www.therestorationmovement.com/oldphiladelphia.htm ---- Vol 1972 Num 3 of the Tennessee Genealogical Society Ansearchin' News Archives at http://www.tngs.org/ (also on F:\temp\TennGenSocAnsearchinNewsArchives) "Warren County, Tennessee Tax List 1812 - The Tennessee State Archives" has listed Lucis Powell and Alexander Powell only. ---- Vol 1983 Num 3 Page 126 of the Tennessee Genealogical Society Ansearchin' News Archives at http://www.tngs.org/ (also on F:\temp\TennGenSocAnsearchinNewsArchives) does not show John Powell as a revolutionary war pensioner in Coffee Co. TN 1840 census Vol 1984 Num 1 Page 33 of the Tennessee Genealogical Society Ansearchin' News Archives at http://www.tngs.org/ (also on F:\temp\TennGenSocAnsearchinNewsArchives) does not show John Powell as a revolutionary war pensioner in Warren Co.

It seems possible that John Powell and Sarah "Sally" Pope went to either Clarke Co. or Oglethorpe Co. Georgia with John's brothers Henry (married to Sally Popes sister Mary "Polly" Pope) and Moses (married to Sally Popes sister Nancy Pope). Henry Powell and family eventually went to Alabama, John Powell and family eventually went to Warren Co. Tennessee, and Moses Powell and family stayed in Clarke Co. Georgia.
