Israel (1760) had been attached through a merge as father of Hardy, but this Israel never married and left his property to his sisters named in his will.

Hardy is showing up in some trees as the son of John Harrell, Jr. and his wife Mary.

I have ordered "The Harrell Family of Eastern North Carolina" book with hopes that there is some information. The authors in one source that is not accessible are quoted somewhere that the plethora of John Harrell as a name is problematic, but they have done their best.

Just know that if you run across these, they are a work in progress. Will need to get curation and locks if we can get them straight. More issues may be hidden from merges we haven't identified yet.
