My grandfather was raised by his grandmother, Mrs. C.E. Paul (Betty)b. Sept 29,1833. His mother died when he was born(don't know her name)and his father William Frank Powell left. We just found the Powells. Now i despertly need help with the Paul's, since the only name i have is gggrandma Pauls.They came from N.C. to Alabama to Arkansas around the same time the Powells did in 1845.To Nevada Co. Ark. Betty's husband went back to Alabama to collect money owed him and was killed in route during civil war. She raised a boy and a girl we know of and never remarried. The girl being my grandfather Jim Ed Powell's mother that died at his birth.Grandpa spoke of the uncle but never by name. Betty is burried at Shiloh Cemetery near Waldo, Ark., Rummer is she was half indian, but we don't know for sure.Please help if any one can. Thank you, Nan from Arkansas
