I ran across a page that had a few listed Mulatto names in the same county as my surnames of Harrell and Everett that I’m searching. It was interesting to find a cluster of Harrells and Everetts in the same county of Nansemond VA, as well the Mulattos. The first I had noticed either. Though my same surnames were not listed as so, I thought Id share the Mulatto names in case anyone else is looking for them. No luck on my own specific people yet, but maybe this will bring someone else luck?

I only focused on the one county where I noticed these together, but there may be others to be found in the same source in other counties. In fact, if I notice more during my search, I will post them also.

Source : Heads of families at the first census of the United States taken in the year 1790. : records of the state enumerations, 1782 to 1785.. Washington: G.P.O., 1908.

The year is 1784 specifically…
