William Turner Powell was the second but oldest surviving son of Jonathan Rogers Powell and Anne Tullett. Jonathan Rogers Powell was born at Old Buckenham Hall in the parish of Old Buckenham, Norfolk on 30/11/1807. He married Anne Tullett, the ward of William Ayleway the Haverfordwest surgeon, at St Mary's Church, Haverfordwest on 25/10/1832. William Turner Powell was born on 18/11/1841. Anne died on 14/12/1846. Jonathan Rogers Powell was a solicitor and a partner in the Haverfordwest firm of Evans Powell and Mathias. As such he was a colleague of William Evans and later of his son, Edward Eaton Evans. Jonathan Rogers Powell died on 30/06/1872. William Turner Powell married Arabella Magdalena Helen Susan Evans soon after September 1874 by which time James Eaton Evans and Edward Eaton Evans were his trustees. William and Helen (as she was always called) seem to have had four sons; Hugh Howell, Turner and Gwynne, before Helen died on 09/09/1891. William himself died 11/04/1907.

Apart from Edward Eaton Evans the men who had most to do with William's affairs were George Turner Phillips, his cousin, and Reverend George Evans, (who later added Gwynne to his name), his brother in law.
