Family Tree Maker's Genealogy Site: User Home Pages: The Howells of North Carolina, "We Are The Blood"

I am a direct descendant of Joseph Howell of Edgecombe County, North Carolina. He was the son of John and Elizabeth Howell who moved to North Carolina from Virginia about 1720. John Howell was the son of John Howell I, who was born in Wales prior to 1600 and emigrated to the United States and settled in Henrico County, Virginia, lived to an old age and is buried there. We are of the lineage of John Howell I. He was a descendant of Hywel Dha, The Good, ancient King of Wales. The Howell name, in all variations, Hywel, Howel, Hywell, etc., can be found prominently throughout the history of Wales from the most ancient times to the present day. Throughout recorded history, from kings of nations to simple farm folk, the Howells have held one firm ideal and tradition, "We Are The Blood. We are Family." So shall it ever be. I am also researching the Haywood County, NC lineages of Allison, Gibson/Gipson, Frady, Smith, Radford, Lee, McNabb, Leatherwood, and Prater. I am also very interested in the Confederate records of these families, and any old photos which anyone would care to share. Please feel free to take any of the photos from this page if you connect to them. All I ask is that you give credit to the owners of the photos if you use them on your site. I have removed the "Descendants of Solomon Gibson" file which I had posted here because I have discovered serious inaccuracies in it. If anyone of these lineages wishes to contact me, I will happily share all information which I have.	The Howells of North Carolina, "We Are The Blood" Updated December 18, 2004
