Wonder if snyone can help - I can go back 3 generations of Harrells in Ripley Co then get
stuck with parents past that.
-My grandfather was John Jacob Harrell b Ripley Co 1876 d 1955(m. Cordia Sporleder)
-John J's father was Daniel Dermit Harrell b Ripley Co 1847 d 1929 (m. Mary Gabel)
-Daniel D's father was James H Harrell (found other families have recorded as James B)
b TN/then NC 1793 d 1872 Ripley Co leaving farm to Daniel D (m. Mary "Polly"
Malin)
-This next information may or may not be correct and would like confirmation: James
H's father was John David Harrell b 1763 TN/then NC d abt 1814 KY(m. Sofia
"Cassia" Deacon in KY)
-If above is correct also trying to find out if John David's father was Housand
Harrell. If yes who was his mother? I understand from a Harrell cousin that DNA testing in
April 2008 showed that Housand Harrell (who m. Frankie Street) IS NOT the father of (our)
John David.
