Hi Dottie, I'm researching the Jarvills in OK. My ggreat aunts were Ellen and Charlotte Virtue, who both married Henry Jarvill. After Ellen died her sister, Charlotte, married her widower. I have a couple of pics not labeled and we feel they are Ellen and Charlotte, but don't know which is which. My Jarvills and Virtues came from Iowa, Polk and Story County, IA. I am in contact with a Jarvill in Iowa, but he doesn't have anything and is looking for more.

Please contact me, I'm sure you must be related to my Jarvill connection. Look forward to hearing from you. I got your name off the GenWeb site.
