Think you are looking for the same Francis Harrell of Nansemond Co VA from whom my family line descends.

Details of this Harrell and most of his line through NC Bertie Co to SC Barnwell Orangeburg to GA Pulaski Dodge Telfair Co can be found in Burch Harrell Allied Family by Marilu Smallwood. Also there are branches that remained in VA and others at some point in history moved west for one reason or other.

MY line runs: Francis, Jacob, Levi (I), Levi (II), William Holt, William Lewis, Charles Wright, Augustus O'Bacon (II), then me.

Also have traced line from William a brother of Levi, I, down through my mom family, Dowdy, line so this makes me my own fifth cousin with Levi, I, as about 5 and 6 great grand dad.

Would like to know where you got the date for birth, 1695, of Francis as have never seen a confirmed date for him only estimated dates based on land deeds dating about 1730 in Nansemond Co VA. Also beware any claim that his son Jacob had a spouse named Mary as have yet to find verified name for her yet have seen him listed with his spouse simply as Mary.
