If you recall, my Harrison ancestor was Jane (Jennie) Harrison bn. 1822. in Cocke Co. Tn. Jane Married Wilson (Wilse) Mcmahan bn. 1823. For a while now I have suspected that Reuben Harrison bn. abt 1792 in Cocke Co. and Elizabeth Baxter were my Janes parents. I had some research that came from the family of Reuben but it did not list my Jane (Jennie) as his child and it just went back to Reuben. Just yesterday I found more research on the family of Reuben at the Stokley Libary in Newport. On this list was a Jane (Jennie) Harrison. This is her, My Jane I am sure of it. The information said that Jane Jennie was a twin sister to John Harrison bn. abt. 1815. Well this is not the birth date of my Jane, But their was also a son of Reuben that was bn. 1822 his name is Nathanial Adam Harrison. I think this is the twin of my Jane. I have found the graveyard where Reuben Harrison is burried. Reuben lived near by. This graveyard is aprox. 2 1/2 miles from where my Jane is burried. Another thing I found out was that Reuben's oldest son John had a daughter named Mary Harrison bn. 1859. This Mary Married William Mansfield Mcmahan a brother to Wilson (Wilse) Mcmahan husban of my Jane (Jennie) Harrison. Then I also found that Reuben's other son Nathanial Adam Harrison bn. 1822 was married to Mary Jane Ball daughter of Alfred Ball and Mahalia Williams. This Alfred Ball was a brother to my great great grandmother Marainey Ball, daughter of Osborne Ball and Martha Thompson. This Reuben Harrison bn. abt. 1992 had a sister named Jane(Jennie) Harrison bn. abt. 1796. This Jane married Abraham Lillard. Abraham Lillard was a brother to my ggg grandfather John(Jack) Lillard Jr. bn. Dec. 14 1795 died in Cocke Co. Tn. Reuben's sister Jane was the aunt of my Jane (Jennie) Harrison bn. 1822. The Jane that was married to a shields was the daughter of Daniel Harrison who was also a brother to Reuben. The other siblings I have of Reuben were: Josiah bn. ca 1790. Sincerely, Roger Ford great great grandson of Jane (Jennie) Harrison bn. 1822 --part2_7a.93313c0.26d13e9c_boundary-- --part1_7a.93313c0.26d17e3b_boundary--
