    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Harrison, Gibson, Smith, Wynne, Carr, Neely, Howell, Bledlove/Breedlove Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/HiB.2ACI/2790 Message Board Post: Can anyone help me fill in my data about my Harrison family? I know that James Harrison emigrated to the area about 1785. He appears in numerous books and land records - often just one of two line references in the former. He married Cynthia Gibson, daughter of Jordan Gibson. I think he came from the Pee Dee River area of SC. He settled first near Hall's Station. I am desperate to find evidence of his parents and siblings. James & Cynthia's children and spouses as follows (surely someone has information about a few of them): Nathaniel Harrison, b. 1776, m. Letitia Gibson - James Harrison b. 1792, m. Elizabeth Smith - George Harrison, d. 1840 - Henry Harrison b. about 1776, m. Polly (Catey) Howell 1796 - Cynthia Harrison, b. 1772, m. Robert Wynne, Samuel Carr - Rhoda Harrison, b. 1778, m. Deveraux Wynne - Polly (Susan?) Harrison, m. Corneliuis Herndon - Massey (Mary) Williams Harrison, m. John Neely - grandson (parents not identified), Nathaniel Bledlove (Breedlove) Harrison. Please direct me to persons and places that may help. Thanks for your generous sharing.
