About Edward Harrelson

There has been some confusion about the parents and the spouse of Edward Harrelson due to his death certificate stating his name as "Edgar" and some notations of his spouse as "Nollie." A search of census records and death certificates clears the matters up. Edward Harrelson born October 15, 1857 and died Aprifl 14, 1945 is the son of Wilson Harrelson and Mary Jane Causey Harrelson. His wife was Christian Eleanor "Nollie" Mills Clemmons Harrelson. (Nollie married John Wesley Clemmons first and then Edward Harrelson.) See citations below.

This profile manager can find no evidence that Edward's father was Timothy Harrelson. If someone has information beyond the Find a Grave statement, please note it here with source citations. SFG
