Zilpha's bros, Paris Dooley Bell and James Daniel Bell came at a later date. James D. Bell settled on land joining Harvey and Zilpha. Purchase was most likely arranged by Harvey Harrison. A third bro, Robert Allen Bell also purchased land, but stayed in Mississippi.

One of Harvey's bros must have been John C. Harrison, who shows in wills & adms 10-28-1847, with Harvey Harrison as adm with securities Joseph Harrison and Joseph H. Bell, who was son of Paris Dooley Bell, bro of Zilpha.
