Found in 1880 Owen Co KY census, age 47; b around 1833. Says both of HIS parents were born in KY
1900 Woodford Co KY census, age 67, says b Feb 1833, married 43 yrs, married in 1857
Found the death cert of John M Powers b 08/19/1869 d 07/11/1957
It says he was the son of James Powers b. Culpepper Co VA and Hester Ann Smith b. Owen Co KY!
James' death cert says he was born in KY though.
Not sure what to think.
