Miles Harrell b. 1790, wife Ester b. 1890
Children of Miles & Esther:

Children of Abram & Esther:

I'm trying to find Miles' parents/origin with little success. I'm also interested in corresponding with family of Ivy Harrell if there are any to be found.
Thanks,
Lance Peterson

Edward married Martha Ann Ella Baker. (Martha Ann Ella Baker was born in Sep 1850 in Virginia and died on 25 May 1922 in Nansemond Co, VA..)
