    3. Bonnie, or Anybody, I am looking for information on John H. Harrison. He was born in South Carolina around 1827, a Creek Indian named Mut-tea-gar. He moved to Floyd County, Georgia sometime around 1840, he is on the Federal Census of 1850, but not as a Indian. He had land given to him by the government in Lowndes County, Alabama in 1853. He was married to a woman whose last name was "Tucker". Althought, she was called "Polly", I do not know that it was her real name. "Polly" is what our family has always called her, yet, I can find NO RECORDS of a Polly Tucker. It is possible that she was Native American, also. I do not know if they were married in South Carolina, as it is believed she was born in Georgia. John may have served in the Civil War as a private in Company H, 15th registment of the Mississippi Infantry. His pension records are from North Carolina, dated 1865. If anyone has information on this man and his family, PLEASE, contact me. He was my GGGGrandfather. His family moved a lot in order to avoid being forced to a reservation by the government. Thank for any help! Ellen
