Comments about this story:
I am a descendant of Daniel Jarrell. I have been told that based on one one person's research conclusions that Daniel Jarrell was most probably married to Mary Davis and not Mary Terry and that Mary Terry was probably a niece. Can anyone prove the validity of the marriage between Daniel Jarrell and Mary Terry? sjarrell@netzero.net
