Note: NOTE 1:
Harrell was the twin brother to Horrald and both weighted 1 and 1/2 lbs. each.
The young Doctor who attended Jewel during her birthing tried a couple of new ideas to save her tiny babies. He build a crude incubator out of a shoe box and compressed oxygen from the Ft. Worth Sand and Gravel Quarry in which both babies were placed and he kept both babies rubbed down in a new medicine to combat lung disease----Vicks-Vapor-Rub. Harrold lived 41 years, 7months, 7days. Harrell lived 17days.
