In 1867, September 26, Mr. Harreld and Miss Sallie Gray were united in marriage. Mrs. Harreld was born in London district, March 13, 1847, and was brought up and educated in the same locality. That district was also the birth-place of her father, in April, 1814. He was an intelligent, industrious, and successful farmer, and died November 21, 1883. Her mother, whose maiden name was Rebecca Hay (a sister of V. S. Hay), a prominent lawyer of Butler and Warren Counties, now deceased) was born in 1812, near the Warren and Butler lines, and died in 1881. Ancestors on both sides were from Virginia; other branches of the family reside in Mississippi. The Gray family are scattered throughout upper Kentucky.
