My grandparents are Walter Calvin Jennelle and Virginia Ellen Delp Jennelle---As far as I know he was raised in Christiansburg Virginia all his life, he worked as a Plumbing and Heat/Air Man. My grandmother was a nurse in Montgomery County. Both are deceased. My father is Eugene Allen Jennelle and his brothers are Michael Stephen and Larry Craig Jennelle, they are both still alive and live in the old home there in Christiansburg.
There are many ways to spell Jennelle...so good luck pinning one kind down, most of us are related. As far as I can tell they started breakingdown the spelling about Civil War time or just a bit sooner.....some are Journell, Jennell, Jenele, Jurnell. There is a Jennelle Cementary in Blacksburg on Jennelle Road--on Yellow Sulfur Springs Road......I have been there a couple of times......
I will do my best to help you, let me know if you think I have info......I will forward anything that I or my parents know....we have a book full of stuff.....
Thanks for asking
Hope we can hook up
