The compilation of these records is the collective work of Elizabeth Girardeau, John Morrel, and Frances Cullom Harper. All three are Murrell/Morrell descendants - as well as Elizabeth's husband. Elizabeth also descends from John White and wife Sarah Severance who moved from Berkeley Co to Craven Co. It is suggested that the original records be obtained whenever possible since abstracts do sometimes contain errors and often omit important details. Additions and corrections will be appreciated. With your help, perhaps more can be proven in the future
