I have information about Jethro Harrell that is somewhat different than that which you are showing. The following is supportive information:

1. Aaron Harrell (Hearrell) I (first) and probably Ann Harrell (some question about this)
        Aaron came to NC from Wales and fought in the War of 1812. He and Ann were in Gates Co., NC, prior to going to Elizabethtown, Bladen Co., NC

        2. Jethro Harrell (b. 4 July 1800, Bladen Co. NC; d. 27 Aug 1866, Effingham Co. IL, bur. New Hope Cem) Married 1: Hannah White 30 Sep 1822 in NC (b.??; d. ca 1834)

                3. Jonathon Harrell (b. 9 Nov 1834)  Hannah probably died giving birth and probably
after moving to Morristown, IN

                Married 2: Ephaha (Effie) Noe 1835, Morristown, Shelby Co., IN (b. 13 Apr 1812; d. 5 Feb 1868, Effingham Co. IL, bur. New Hope Cem)
                3. Katharine Harrell (b. 8 Apr 1836, Morristown, Shelby Co., IN)
                3. Jacob Harrell (b. 13 May 1837, Morristown, Shelby Co., IN; d. 2 Jul 1930; m1. Latnenia Brewster, m2. Martha Ellen Brown)
                3. William Hibben Harrell (b. 5 Nov 1839, Morristown, Shelby Co., IN; d. 22 Jul 1914; m. Sarah Dixon Defrees
                3. John Wesley Harrell (b 29 Jul 1842, Effingham Co., IL; d. 1873, m. Clara Kiefer)
                3. Sarah Jane Harrell (b. 16 Nov 1844, Effingham Co., IL; d. ??; m. David Parkhurst)
                3. Francis Hiram Harrell (b. 20 Feb 1849, Effingham Co., IL; d. 1930)
                3. George W. Harrell (b. 27 Oct 1852, Effingham Co., IL; d. 17 Apr 1872; m. Eliza Parkhurst)

        2. Aaron Harrell II (b. 1795, Elizabethtown, Bladen Co., NC, d. 1835, Wayne Co., IN)
                Married: Nancy Bunch, 12 Sep 1817, Perquimans Co. NC (b. ca 1800, Chowan Co., NC; d. ??, bur. Rush Co., In)

                3. Jethro Harrell
                3. Isaac Harrell
                3. Deliah Harrell
                3. Joshua Harrell
                3. Aaron Harrell III (b. 16 Mar. 1826, Elizabethtown, Bladen Co., NC; d. 5 Feb 1887, Effingham Co., IL, bur. Salem Cem)
                        Married 1: Cinthia Ann Kelso, 19 Sep 1848. They had several children, among them:

                        4. Aaron Harrell IV
                        4. Alexander McClemens (Mack) Harrell (b. 26 Dec 1852, Rush Co., IN, d. 3 Feb 1922,    Moultrie Co., IL)
 
                                5. Aaron Jasper Harrell V -- among his children:

                                        6. Aaron Jasper Harrell VI
                                        6. Franklin Gene Harrell (This is me)(b. 10 Nov 1934, Moultrie Co.
IL) -- among his children:

                                                7. Aaron Victor Harrell VII

        2. Robert Harrell m. Anna Harrell (moved from NC to Morristown, IN 1835)
                3. Ann Harrell
        2. Nancy Harrell
        2. Samuell Harrell

I have more detail on the 4-7 levels. Apparently Aaron Harrell III started his family in Rush Co, IN. My grandfather, Mack Harrell was born in Rush Co.

Brothers Jethro, Aaron II, and Robert, and sister Nancy went by wagon train from NC to areas around Morristown, Shelby Co., IN sometime between 1833 and 1835. The other brother, Samuell, remained in NC. The three men were accompanied by their wives and children. In 1841, Jethro and his family and Deliah moved to Effingham Co., IL. Aaron III and his family followed sometime between 1853 and 1857.

My information comes from research from a deceased cousin, Helen Wacaser, an old family Bible, and Harrell folk lore told repeatedly at the Harrell-Bright reunions in Effingham and Moultrie counties, IL.

I am originally from IL, but presently live in Dallas, TX. As soon as I can get our connection to the UK, which Helen claims to be Wales and I doubt, I plan to publish a book on our genealogy.

Hope this helps.

Gene Harrell
