My web site is: http://members.tripod.com/~Bonestwo/ My question has to do with another line of Harrisons that I descend from. Her name is Anne Harrison of South Cave who married Henry Fairfax Hon. (1659-1708) of Bolton Percy. Anne was the daughter of a Richard Harrison. She died Aug 1733. Anne (Harrison) Fairfax was the mother of William Fairfax, Esq. Gov. (15 Oct 1691- 3 Sep 1757) born in Newton Kyme Parish, Yorkshire, England and died "Belvoir Manor", Fairfax Co., VA. He was the Gov. of Bahamas and builder of Belvoir Manor, now called Ft. Belvoir, VA, an Army base in Northern Virginia. Does anyone know any information about Richard Harrison? Who were his parents, his wife, ect.? Thank you very much Tricia Petitt
