This is a search for the parents and siblings of VICTORIA JARRELL. She was born 1845-49 in Raleigh County or Wyoming County, West Virginia (Virginia at the time). By 1870, she was living with Jacob William PETTRY in Raleigh County. Jacob was a Mormon and had a wife already, Jane Morris. Even though his church accepted her as his wife (#2), the state didn't. They had two children, Mary Jarrell and Samuel Edward Jarrell. They were given the last name Jarrell for obvious legal reasons. Samuel Edward was born abt 1870. He married Mary Etta Hunter and they had 12 children: Don Blaine, Dorothy, James, Denver, Minerva, Ruby, Amy, Garnet, Mary, Robert, Byrd, and Hobert. Victoria Jarrell's brother was said to be a doctor. Victoria finally married Jacob Pettry in 1908, presumably after wife #1 had died. In case it may help some, Jacob William Pettry was the son of Jacob Pettry, Sr. and Celia Gore Pettry. One of Jacob Wm.'s sisters, Martha Araminta "Mattie" Pettry marrried James Anderson Jarrell, son of Lemuel Jarrell and grandson of Daniel Jarrell and Mary Terry. Other Jarrell's from that area known to have married Mormons during the 1850-1900 time were Rosetta Jane Jarrell and Cynthia Frances Jarrell (daughters of John Poindexter Jarrell). They both moved with their families to Utah. Any assistance with this Victoria Jarrell would be greatly appreciated. Ed May oldgator@bellsouth.net
