It seems strange, since the given names and the locations match so well, but the Surry Co family has supposedly all been identified elsewhere. Benjamin and his son James were my ancestors, too.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/jhh.2ACIB/543.1503.1.1 Message Board Post: I am a descendant of James Harrison and Mary Ann, said to be Washington. I now think that "Washington" may be from a misreading of James Harrison's will. Their daughter Nancy married Gray Washington and had a son named Robert Wylie Washington. Robert Harrison, son of James and Mary Ann, married Martha Baugh and moved to Edgefield, South Carolina. His son, Wiley Harrison, was my gggfather. There is information on this Benjamin Harrison line in John Bennett Boddie's "Historical Southern Families", Geneological Publishing Co, 1970 (also available on CD-ROM). For more details, look for Shepherd Spencer Neville Brown's, "Neville, Jones, Spencer, Harrison Families and Collateral Lines 1600-1992", Texian Press, Waco, TX -- 1993. Neither book follows your family past Charles Tillman Harrison, though. "Genealogies of Virginia Families", Volume IV, "Washingtons of Surrry Co." has more about Gray Washington and Nancy Harrison (and is the reason I doubt that Mary Ann ___ Harrison was a Washington). Where did your family go from Brunswick Co, VA?

>From "Growing Up With Tulsa" which was written by Blanche Opal Kern Schad, a Harrison descendant, first cousin of my G-grandfather Herman R. Harrison. This story occurred when Opal was 10 years old. This book can be read in its entirety online now: http://freepages.books.rootsweb.com/~irishrose/tulsa/index.html Mother and I spent most of the summer of 1910 in Beemer, Nebraska. We had traveled there to be with her brother, my Uncle Dick, as his wife, my Aunt Liz, had died suddenly of a heart attack and Uncle Dick was having a hard time adjusting to the loss. My mother was a practical nurse so we stayed with him as long as we could that summer. The doctor told Mother that Uncle Dick would not last long after she left. He was right. Uncle Dick died of grief less than a month after we had gone. (*Note - the Uncle Dick mentioned was my GG-grandfather --William Brice Harrison & Emma Osborn were my GGG-grandparents. Richard is buried in Cuming County, NE and William & Emma are buried in Weston, Saunders Co., NE) In the summer of 1912, we again made the trip to Nebraska. We went first to Weston where Mother’s sister Clysta lived. Mother showed me where her father and mother, William Bryce (Brice) Harrison and Emma Osborn Harrison, were buried. Both had died before I was born. My grandpa Harrison died in 1898 at the age of eighty-five. We visited with the cousins and went to see places of special recollections and interest to Mothers, including the surrounding towns. From there we went to Omaha to visit Mother’s niece and then to Beemer, where Uncle Dick had raised his family. Many of my cousins were living in Beemer, surrounding towns and on nearby farms. Mother was next to the youngest in the family and I was the youngest in our family, so that my second cousins were in my age group. From Beemer we went to Casper, Wyoming, to visit Mother’s brother Sam and his family. Uncle Sam’s youngest daughter, Gladys and I were the same age, but her older sister Katherine had a son who was also our age. Uncle Sam and Aunt Mayme decided it would be nice for us to go camp in the mountains for a couple of weeks. There were three wagons loaded with supplies and those of us who were going. The mountains are about eight miles south of Casper and there was a place there where a natural spring fed a mountain stream and there were log cabins in the area. We rode in the wagons until we reached the mountains and then we had to get out and walk, as the horses could not pull the wagons with the supplies and us both in them. The trail was winding and steep and we could often climb up to the next road and be there long before the wagon got there. We got to see many things, such as mica mines, which seemed to be right on top of the ground. When we arrived, we met some sheepherders tending their flocks. The shepherd’ s life is a lonely one, so our arrival was cause for a celebration. Then over the weekend, my cousin May and some of her friends rode horses up to the camp. She was about twenty years old. May later married and moved with her family to a small community near Pawhuska, named Nelogany. When she got homesick, she would come to Tulsa to visit our family. I once attended a teachers meeting at Pawhuska and stayed with her. Incidentally, this was the time that our school superintendent, whose name was Porter, also attended the teachers’ meeting. He had a car and would ask me to meet him outside instead of attending the speaking and go for a ride. Of course, I enjoyed the rides more than the speeches. One of the shepherds asked us all to have supper with him. He had killed a lamb or two and cooked them. He even made biscuits and prepared a fine meal. He put wide boards between some trees to serve as a table. He was living in a covered wagon in which he had his bed, a stove, food storage and essentials. The meal had been prepared in these crowded quarters. The cabins were deserted and people used them free along with the nearby spring water. While the adults and my older cousin and her friends were eating, Gladys and I stole their horses and went for a ride (remember, children waited until the adults were finished eating when there was a crowd). By the time we returned, the rest of the folks were getting anxious about us." Since there were so many of us there for the night, the grownups decided to have a square dance on the board floors. Sheep herders came from all around. One of them played a fiddle or violin and I believe another one played the harmonica. The problem was that no one knew how to square dance except my mother, then over fifty, and an old man who was also well over fifty. Therefore, they led the dance. As the night wore on, we younger ones went to the cabins which were used for sleeping and went to bed. I believe that we all had a very good time on the campout.

Some Harrison and West descendants left North Carolina made it to Texas and lived around Denison, Texas possibly Honeygrove (Fannin County) and Denison (Grayson County) area it appears they resided there 20 are more years and then migrated into Oklahoma by 1891 making the Sac and Fox Land run Lincoln County, Oklahoma. Some documents/records show them born in North Carolina and some South Carolina I believe he may have been born in North and she South?? I have see an Edmun Harrison in Onslow on the 1870 Census. I am looking for someone related to Edmond Harrison (my great great grandfather) died October 27, 1899 and buried in Lincoln County Oklahoma he was married to a Laura nee? (b. 05.1856) who may have been his second wife but there is no proof. Laura was married twice her second spouse also N.C. born was Manuel/Emmanuel Epps . Edmond's oldest and only know son was William H. or William M. Harrison b. 1870. I am unsure if Laura is the mother of all his children. She claims to have born only 3 children on the census. She is the mother of his youngest daughter my great grand mother Nettie Harrison Lewis ( b.01.20.1886) in Denison, Grayson Co. Tx, and Laura (b. 1880) and maybe Loutheria (b. 1876/77). The other children are Nannie (b. abt 1872), Fennie/Fena (b. 1874), Henrietta/Henryetta (b. 1875). All of these children according to various records were Texas born. Loutheria Harrison married Louis West (b. 1876/GA ) son of Burrell/Burl West (b. 1850) and Francis nee? (b. 1845) both on 1900 Oklahoma Census report themselves to be South Carolina born. William married Dollie? (8 children) Nannie- Arthur Arbuckle(8 children) Fennie/Fena- John Perkins (1 child) Henrietta-#1 T.C. McCarty (0 children) #2 Richard Walker (1 child) Loutheria- Louis West (7 children) Laura- Walter Arbuckle (2 children) Great Grand Parents Nettie -Solomon Lewis (9 children) According to a family tree without dates and shared with me at a West-Harrison family reunion in Oklahoma over 20 years ago . Burrell and Francis West had 2 children: (1)Susie West ( had no children/married?) (2)Louis West married twice # 1 Loutheria Harrison who died at age 36? #2 Martha Wyatt Louis West had 7 children with Loutheria (1)Iola(iola) West - Wade Davis (6 children) (2)Solomon West (no children) (3)Cossie West Bryan - Arch Bryan (5 children) (4)George West - Learlean Tillis(8 children) (5)Eldis West (no children) (6)Alberta West (no children) (7)Lee Edna West Robinson/Robertson (8 children) Long story short the family I am seeking is of African American descent is yours? And if not seeking possible slave owner family of Edmond Harrison wills property list, tax list etc.. Thanks Judith
