Sons of Levi Harrell, I RS from SC

Harrell, Levi II born Sept. 16, 1777 in NC and died December 21, 1865 on his plantation in Pulaski County, GA. He married in 1806 (most likely in SC), Elizabeth Holt who was born in Maryland. He was in Pulaski Co., GA prior to August 4, 1813 when he is counted on the muster roll of a detachment of militia stationed at Fort Green and Fort Laurence, Capt. Allen Tooke Commanding. He was living in Capt. William Hendley's district of the county. Harrell, Asa I born 1779 in NC and died 1851 Pulaski Co., GA. Served during the War of 1812, as a private under Gen David Blackshear. Asa married in 1815, Elizabeth Keen, daughter of Harrell, William born 1784 in NC and died in Telfair Co., GA prior to May 23, 1866 when his will was probated. He served from Aug. 14 to Sept. 20, 1813 in Capt. Allen Tooke's Co., Pulaski Co., Ga. He married in about 1807, Mary Catherine Bass who was born in NC in 1786. Harrell, Isaac Son of Levi Harrell, I Hendley, William, Capt. son of Elmore Hendley and Susannah Hendley, born in Scotland. Came to America before the Revolutionary War. Was in Wake Co., NC where he married his wife, Amelia Ann Horton daughter of David Horton and Anne (Olive) Horton. They moved to GA and Settled in Pulaski County. Horton, Amelia Ann (referred to as  Millie Ann or Melia in some records) Father, David Horton served in the Indian wars, was a private in the first southern battalion of militia of Orange Co., NC. I have a copy of David's will which I copied at the NC State Archives. I also have a copy of a RS claim for land in Wake Co., NC for David for his service during the RW. There is a connection to the Arundel/Arrendal family but I have not yet identified through which of those lines. The connection is most likely through Anne e Horton's line. See: Benj. Arrendal in Wake Co., NC son of Richard and Elinor. wife of William Hendley, RS from NC. Daughter of David and Anne Horton. David Horton's line goes back to John Budd and Barnabus Horton, two of the 13 Puritans who purchased Long Island, NY from the Indians and settled the Southold Long Island, NY area. An eight foot tall monument is over Barnabus Horton's grave on Southold LI, NY. The Horton home built in 1659, was still standing and occupied by Horton's as late as the 1940s.

Most family group sheets for David's line that I have seen on the WWW are incorrect and have his line going back to CONN.. and through the wrong son of Barnabus Horton. David Horton's line is through Joseph Horton, son of Barnabus and his first wife Anne Smith, whom Barnabus married 1622, in England.

Joseph came to America in 1635-1638 on the Swallow with his father and stepmother and younger brother Benjamin (both sons were children of Anne Smith, first wife of Barnabus Horton). Joseph, their first son was born 1625 married Jane Budd, daughter of John Budd, I. John Budd, I, was one of the 13 Puritan's mentioned earlier.

William Holt Harrell son of Levi I, married Sophia Hendley daughter of Captain William Hendley and Amelia Ann Horton, known as Millie Ann.

Levi Holt Harrell was a son of William Holt Harrell and Elizabeth Holt and a twin brother to William Lewis Harrell.  (both twin brothers, Levi Holt and William Lewis Harrell  home from the civil war with a leg missing and wearing a peg leg. )  Peg leg story related to me by my father's cousin, Pauline Willcox, and confirmed by my father from family tradition taught to him by his Grandmother, Elizabeth Daniel Harrell Luke who reared him from the age of 8 months.

Levi Holt Harrell, twin to William Lewis Harrell, married Mary Jane "Mittie" Willcox, daughter of John Willcox, III and  Louisa Conner.  Mary Jane named a daughter Elizabeth Daniel Harrell which is a bit puzzling, since Daniel was the surname of her father's first wife, Mary Daniel.
