EDWARD H HARRISON 3. ANN SAPHRONIA HARRISON 4. MARY A. E. HARRISON 5. JOHN B. HARRISON 1. JAMES M. HARRISON married MARY ________________. According to the family tradition he was a man of considerable means, large land holdings, and many slaves. My husband had as his nurse one of the former slaves, and it was within his recollection of his mother that they much preferred going down to the slave quarters, if allowed, rather than eat in the big house. JAMES M HARRISON appears for the first time on the 1830 census of Edgefield County S.C. It shows him as age 20-30 years; wife age 20-30 years; 2 females under age of 5.

The original grant was made to CHAMP TERRY; conveyed by said TERRY to JAMES HARRISON and left to his son EDWARD HARRISON in his will and conveyed from the Commission of Equity in Edgefield District to MARY HARRISON.
