Josie You posted a blurb about the taylor family of va and its possible heraldry in England. I noticed your subscript. I am dealing with a problem harrison family of Va that perhaps you and your daughter can help with. The elizabeth harrison of the header is a harrison of the Presidency harrison family if she is a harrison. These are the known facts. John Mason Sr. born 1693 of Mathews mount Surry co Va died sep 3 1755 married an elizabeth ?????? in two family histories with out notes and sources she is listed as a harrison. AS there are no know surename for her this is indeed possible. her known facts are these 1, Her name is elizabeth. 2. she was from the berkley, Surry co. Va area. 3. Her childrens names are John, James, Joseph, Mary, Christopher, Anne, Daniel, Isaac. DAvid, And charles. of the names found in the mason ancestry the following above names are know to exist. John, Elizabeth, isaac, James, Mary, possibly charles (a step family name) So we find that the following names would probably be tied to elizabeths family because of presence. They are Joseph, christopher, daniel, anne and david. I have looked at all the Harrison families in surry and elizabeth is a very prominent family name. but so how ever are two of the other names. These are Christopher and daniel. These masons where not quakers, they where episcopel. So the probability of them naming after bibical names is therefore remote. I am aware that Daniel Harrison Born about or in 1668 is a odd man out. I have him place in the benjamin harrison family because of taz records. He married to hannah and had as children Soloman, possibly this elizabeth and a Joseph. Can you verify this family relationship at all. A lot of the above comes from surry and sussex co Tax records?
