Mary Jane Harrison was born in 1831 in Harris County, Georgia, married Jacob Fussell, Jr, December 26, 1849 in Muscogee Co. Ga. Her father was Reubin Harrison. I believe she was the mother of Andrew Jackson McGraw who was born in 1871 in Jacksonville, Ga. Andrew Jackson was my grandfather and we are searching for his family.
