Harrell Family Cemetery

Place

The Harrell family’s own namesake cemetery: Whitmell Finis Harrell (1806-1877) and Whitmell Henry Harrell (1832-1883), likely father and son. Also the site of a concentrated run of infant and child burials, an ordinary but stark reminder of 19th-century infant mortality.

Notable graves:

  • Whitmell Finis Harrell (1806-1877), the cemetery’s namesake.
  • Jane Mills Gamble (14 Oct 1797 - 18 Jul 1886) - one of the oldest-born women documented in this area.
