I've managed to trace this family back to Job B. Braziel, but I have not found a good link to who Job's father was. Several family trees I have checked seem to have erroneous or unproven links to Job's ancestry. I am satisfied, from the available records, that I have proof for this lineage of Job's descendants.

There seems to be a variety of spellings of Braziel/ Breazeale, etc., although this branch of the family shown seems to follow the Braziel spelling.
