I think this should be Robert Powers, son of a slave named Jeffrey Powers.
This is Tupac Shakur's 2nd great grandfather.

Tupac Shakur

Hello Kinfolk,This Is Revelation.I'm Writing You To Say And/Or Mention That Roosevelt Powell Was The Family James Powell Brother Am I Correct✍🏾?...-Revelation.©®️✔️

If https://ethnicelebs.com/tupac-shakur is correct, this is Lesane Parish Crooks's 2nd great grandfather: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/sources/GCQ6-HP5 at FamilySearch

Ethnicelebs is a great resource and I use them a lot, but you always have to double-check their sources, just like anywhere else.

We're showing Robert Powers and Jeffery Powers in our tree, in the same places Ethnicelebs suggests (second- and third-great-grandfather).

It looks like Karen Sue Showell has been working on this line on both Geni and FamilySearch, so she might be the best person to answer any questions. It looks like we have a screenshot establishing the connection between Robert and Jeffrey, but nothing establishing Tupac's path back to them.

(Side note: Karen Sue Showell, would you be willing to delete this duplicate of Private? The other manager is inactive and unlikely to merge, and your copy don't add any new information, so just removing it is the easiest approach. It would also be really helpful if you'd either delete your duplicate of Tupac or complete this merge request. Thank you!)

Okay Ashley,I'll Ask Karen Thank You Family💯✍🏾...-🤴🏾Revelation.©®️✔️
