I am related to BP, not through blood or marriage but rather through a shared belief in the potential of young boys and girls and the men and women they become. After all, family is not a thing you are, it's a thing you do.

Hi Ashleemarie, I have cousins that are Powells. Les Powell (cousin) was the Mayor of Fairfield here in Australia. My Dad was from Bournemouth. My Grandmother Laura Bessie May was apparently BP's cousin. She lived in Dorset, married to a Seaman of some sort, don't know what rank. His surname was Young, I don't know his first name. My dad was the youngest of 3 boys, Rodney, Robert and Raymond. My Dad immigrated to Australia when he was a young man. The plot thickens!

@FabKaz403 my Dad tells me we're related to him too! We're Powells, dad born in England....I'd love to get some names together and do a family tree too :)

Hi I am also related to Sir Baden Powell. Not really sure how, I am told that he is also my Great Uncle. My grandmother is Laura Bessie Mae Payne. Does this make any sense to you? I am in the middle of building my family tree. Would love to hear from you
