DNA connections to Henry Powell (1802-1890) Our GGG Grandfather

 Looking at our many DNA connections to Henry Powell, we have matches to each of his children except for Andrew Jackson Powell.  With so many DNA tests, it is odd that no one matches descendants of Andrew Jackson.

Joe B. DNA matches to Henry's children are:

Charles 36 matches to 5 descendants

John (our line) 62 matches to 5 descendants

Cyrus 12 matches to 3 descendants

Margaret 6 matches to 2 descendants

Jacob 11 matches to 4 descendants

Sarah 13 matches to 6 descendants

Melinda 6 matches to 1 descendants

Lucinda 11 matches to 4 descendants

Andrew Jackson no matches


Joe B has 156 matches to Henry, with 66 of those to John

Betty has 110 to Henry, 62 to John

Fleta has 96 to Henry, 57 to John

Gilbert has106 to Henry, 50 to John

Helen has 101 to Henry, 57 to John


Andrew Jackson live to be 90 years old, had 4 children live to adulthood, and 10 grandchildren.

John lived to 38 had 6 children, and 18 grandchildren that lived to adulthood,  John's daughter Matilda did not have any bio children.

We will keep looking for DNA connections to Andrew Jackson Powell.  Maybe his descendants are not interested in genealogy.  We know our Richard Powell  has 1 grandchild that did DNA testing at Ancestry, 6 great grandchildren tested, 14 2g and 3g grandchildren tested. And, that is just the ones we know about.
