George's parents were John and M. Herlocker Hartsell.
George and Delaney settled on a 400 acre tract of land around and north of Bethel Church in Morgan County in 1834.
The town of Hartselle was named for George Hartsell.
The name has been spelled three different ways: Hartsel, Hartsell and Hartselle. The story is told that papers were sent to Washington for signing. Due to the fancy Old English script, there appeared to be an "E" on the end of the name when the papers were returned.
