Betty, Thanks for checking. The Vol. 1, page 146, showing Guy T. Harrison marrying Nancy Brewster 1850 is my third gr. grandfather. His wife, Clementine Harmon, (first wife) died just before 1850 and am trying to document her death and possible burial place. She was born in Washington County and married Guy T. Harrison. Is this book available now? Thanks for your help...
