Jesse Harrell: Aggressive Search Working
The children of Levi Thomas Harrell (Jesse William's oldest brother) migrated to and live in Middle Louisiana in LeCompte, Jena, and surrounding areas.
BJ looked this information up for me.... it will tell you the children of Jesse (although I think some are missing).
"I've looked at the 1850 Pike Census, and your John Harrell was born in 1836.....not 1832, unless they had TWO children named John and one is not on the 1850 census as Head of any Household in Pike County. (they did not have 2 named John.. it was my mistake.. ignore this part)
