This week I visited the Mesa Regional Family History Center for information about the Jarrell family of North Carolina and Kentucky.  This part of the family is on my paternal grandmother’s side.  They originated in Craven County, North Carolina and moved to Kentucky around 1800, where they lived in Elliot, Floyd, Morgan and Pike Counties during the early 1800’s.

Here are the items of interest that I found during the visit:
