    1. Re: [HARRISON] George Harrison family - East Retford, Nottinghamshire, England
    2. These names are not familiar but I do have a local connection. My Harrisons left Northrop, Lincolnshire, England around 1860. John Harrison was born 1807 and married 2nd Margaret Edwards. They each had children from their first marriages and also had children together. They settled in Warren County, New York State, USA. Until a couple of years ago I had been corresponding with Ellen Harrison Davies in Sheffield, England. I found her parents' address in my my grandmother's papers when she passed away and I located Ellen. We were unable to establish any connection between our two families but I believe John Harrison's oldest son Tom stayed in England and did not come to the U.S. We have had a tough time locating Northrop but did locate the chapel where John and Margaret were married in Sheffield. I would love to make connections on either side of the big pond! Phyllis Reed
