News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

Devin descendant, Stanley Wayne Devin, passed away at 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 4, 2014. He was the last living child of Ira & Oleta Devin.

      Notes 
      • He was the second husband of Mattie Powell. Source: The Heritage of Caswell County, North Carolina, Jeannine D. Whitlow, Editor (1985) at 140-141 (Article #101 "Louise Powell Butler" by Louise Powell Butler). While his birth date is on the gravestone in the Gravestone in the Powell Family Cemetery (Blanche, Caswell County, North Carolina), there is no death date. This suggests that he was buried elsewhere. Note that he outlived his wife by some years.
