Since many of these family carry common first names from generation to generation I see some of them that are common to the Harrell line I trace from Nansemond County Virginia around 1734 or earlier on into Pulaski County Georgia as early as 1811 with some of the family breaking off in NC and SC and with new lands opening west and the Civil War it scattered across America for one reason or other.I trace:
