    • He was the second husband of Mattie Powell. Source: The

      , Jeannine
      D. Whitlow, Editor (1985) at 140-141 (Article #101 "Louise
      Powell Butler" by Louise Powell Butler). While his birth
      date is on the gravestone in the Gravestone in the Powell
      Family Cemetery (Blanche, Caswell County, North Carolina),
      there is no death date. This suggests that he was buried
      elsewhere. Note that he outlived his wife by some years.
