    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: harrison, lovell, payne, young, douglass Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jhh.2ACIB/1351.1522.1529.1536 Message Board Post: I have some little bits of information of a brother to Benjamin Harrison, signer of the Declaration of Independence, named Joseph Lovell Harrison. He died in 1787 in Louisa, Virginia. Joseph Harrison had a son named Hezekiah Harrison that married Jane or Jenny Young, daughter of John Young and Mary Martin. Hezekiah Harrison and the Young family left the Louisa, Caroline, Virginia area and settled in Fayette, Kentucky. I am wanting to fill in some blanks. John Young had brothers William, Leonard, Richard and Lawrence that also spent time in Fayette, Kentucky. They are either the sons of a Richard or Laurence Young. If you can further my study on the Harrison line, please let me know. Thanks for your time.

    2. Patrica Wright
    3. Hi everyone; Does anyone have a Loyalist HARRISON from the States who went into Nova Scotia or New Brunswick. Canada ? I have a John Alfred Harrison who was married in New Brunswick but we can not locate his family. His children claim he was born in Nova Scotia but without a parents name it is impossible to go ahead. He was born ca 1847 and died 1891 in New Brunswick, Canada. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Surnames: DUNCAN, HALL, HATCHER, LOWRY, MARSHALL, MILLS, NEWMAN, PERKINS, ROBESON/ROBINSON, THOMPSON, THURMOND Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/jhh.2ACIB/4858 Message Board Post: Posted a similar message in response to another Harrison query. Hello to all. Judging from all the Harrison messages that I have read--me-thinks you guys are all in the same mess that I am in--that Harrisons were either poor record keepers, no one cared at the time, or they just do not wish to be found!!! I have such limited info that I cannot call them clues. They are clue-bits. Elusive bunch, it seems, with whom we deal! Allegedly from "Phillips Hollow" / Bransford / Bethpage / Westmoreland / Sumner County, TN John M. or W. HARRISON (b & d -?, ca. b. 1855-1880) m. UNK they had at least one son: Eugene McClellan HARRISON (b. 09 May 1898, d. 02 Nov 1933) m. Elizabeth Rebecca (DUNCAN) (b. 1898, d. 1977) *Eugene McClellan HARRISON was reared Methodist. At time of death--he worked for the TN Elec. Power Co. as a streetcar driver/conductor. He had at least one sister, who married an ECHOLS. It is believed that he had at least one half sister. *Elizabeth Rebecca (DUNCAN) Harrison was reared Methodist or Baptist. She is the daughter of John W. (Wesley?) DUNCAN (who was the son of Astyanax Mills DUNCAN and Elizabeth R. (MARSHALL) Duncan) & Allie Meada/ Almeadia/ "Meadie" (NEWMAN) Duncan (who was the daughter of Franklin NEWMAN and Lucy (ROBESON/ROBINSON) Newman. Eugene McClellan HARRISON and Elizabeth Rebecca (DUNCAN) Harrison had 4 of 6 children who survived to adulthood: Ruby Jewel HARRISON, died young; Mildred "Millie" (HARRISON) [1-Zomanski] 2-Rodgers, is now deceased, but has 3 children residing presumably out West; John William HARRISON, still living. 1st marriage: 5 issue, all still living. 2nd marriage: 1 issue, still living--this is my husband's lineage. Carl Burress HARRISON, deceased. Married: 1 issue, still living. *At the time of Carl's death, he was a Metro-Nashville Police Detective. Carl's middle name possibly came from being after an old country doctor who may have delivered him--Dr. Burress. It is believed that Carl's child still lives in TN. Thelma Jean (HARRISON) [1-Johnson] [2-Kostera] 3-Miller, still living in MI. 1 issue, still living in MI. That's all there is...there isn't anymore! Since my husband's paternal grandfather died at age 35 and I have good reason to believe that his parent(s) may have already been deceased, we do not know anything more about the HARRISON lineage. I want to be able to tell my children about their surname and the history of the family...but I do not have much to tell them after years of researching the line. No military records, no family stories, no further info. If you have connections to this line or know something about it due to your research findings...would love to hear from you. Thanks for your time and attention, regardless of outcome. I bid you love and laughter, but above these...I bid you peace. Gena M. Burns-Harrison (GMBH) [email protected]

    3. HI there, You titled your email John B harrison but I did not see his name connected. I do have an interest in Brunswick Co. as several of my Relatives come from there. Mary Harrison was married to Paul Hartwell and she had many sibilings one of which was John. their father was Richard. This was hard to prove until we found a court record on it. this would have been around the mid 1700's or so. I would be interested any thing about Harrison's in Brunswick co. Va.
