James Bratton Powell
Am researching James Bratton Powell,(1811-1864), married to Sarah Jane Shelby (1827-1913). Their children were: Olive Irene Powell, Marcus Shelby Powell, and Thomas James Powell, born December 1856.
This Powell family was from Lake Providence, East Carroll, LA area and the Shelby family was from Claiborne Co., MS. Have hit a dead end on James Bratton Powell. Any help or leads would be appreciated.
