There are many, many Harrell in the area, including Round Rock/Austin settler, Jacob Harrell, in 1830s. You might want to look at the listings in Handbook of Texas Online, and also at the Fayette county archives...although not too much there, there might be some incations/family trees in the Harrell file. By the 1860s there were a lot of the families children getting married. Might even be my cousins but I don't recognize the names. Sorry. Good luck, Gary Stella
