The " Old Powell Burial Ground" is located on land that John and Nancy Mason Powell settled on in the early 1800's. The ground was owned by Steven W. Berry in 1923 when he donated one acre to the cemetery Oct. 6, 1923. Steven was married to Ida B. Brunton. I went by the cemetery Sun. Apr. 29, 2001 to check a couple of dates. Some more of the gravestones have fallen over and broke. Some were broke in 1988 when I first transcribed the cemetery. There are several rocks that have been used for markers. I've added the ones that are buried without stones that I was told of by family members. John Powell and Nancy Mason were my g g g grandparents. William Powell and Ann Green my g g grandparents.
