Comments: My line is through David's grandson, Hosea. My father told me Hosea's
father was George Powell, but I am still trying to verify that.
Ed. note: I found an Ann Florence Shifflett while browsing through the
Shiflett book. Her parents are listed as Columbia Shifflett and George Powell
and her birth fits in the list of Columbia's children and I have added her in.
This supports the oral history that Hosea's father was George Powell.
