m#MASHBURNMASHBURN posted by Judy Lynn Marshburn on Thursday, March 4, 1999

My father moved to Duplin Co. 40 years ago and much to everyone's surprise I have found out from the census records that my great-greatgrandfather moved from Duplin Co. 150 years ago. His name was Daniel Henderson MASHBURN. His father was James MASHBURN who died in 1840. It lists that my family lived in the Southerland District of Duplin Co. and so far no one at the county offices has been able to tell me where this is. Do you have a clue? If I can be of help to you since I do live in Duplin Co. contact me. Also, I know that Wallace, where I live was part of the area where Scots were given land grants from Governor Johnson who were part of the Highland Clearances of Scotland. There were many Southerlands living here in the early history but there is not many now, so I was curious if this was the place James lived. Thanks for your help and I will try to return the favor. Sincerely,

Joab/Jacob POWELL later married Mary HIGHSMITH of Duplin County and they had two sons. Randal and William POWELL My line is through Isaac and there is a possibility that his mother was a SLOAN as he named his youngest son Adolphus Sloan POWELL, my great grandfather. I will share what I have of the POWELL family to anyone who can connect me with the LANIER family or if possible the SLOAN family or knowledge about Joab/Jacob POWELL.
