Found him again. 1900 Census, U.S. CA: San Joaquin County, Stockton Township, Stockton City, Stockton State Hospital. Enumeration date not given, supposed to hve been June. ED 166, sheet 15, line 83. Harrison, Thomas, patient. WM date of birth unknown, age 40, widowed with some note like Hi. Place of birth England, parents place of birth unknown. Year of immigration to US, no of years in US, naturalization all unknown. able to read, write and speak English. I think that if you know all of the stuff you do from family records that presumably survive from before the murder, like, who had them but the Mr. and Mrs. Harrison, the authorities and the people at teh state hospital certainly had more info on this man than they troubled to look up for the census, and if the people at the State Hospital didn't care enough to write more than a page, ever, about him, which was the case when my great grandmotehr died at Northampton State Hospital in Massachusetts in the 1920's, then it would be in the police or court recrords. Tehre is also a Frank P Harrison b England, nothing much known about him. Might or might not be coincidence; in 15 pages I found only these two Harrison's, and none at all in 1910 besides yours. On that supposed Yorkshire birth and the IGI; a great many English church records could not be filmed by the Mormons, and many more are not in the IGI. Look on th e Genuki sites (their version of Rootsweb). Also, under local history centers. You can get church records on microfilm or fiche from England that hte Mormons do not have. You might also be able to get someone to check church records whose people in control of them would not let them be filmed. In Yorkshire in mid last century, people were belonging to every sort of sect, particularly Methodist. Try asking about Harrison family on the Genuki and Rootsweb lists for YOrkshire, too.
