General Notes: Husband - Thomas Harrison


He came to Erie County, Pennsylvania, about the year 1823, and settled in McKean Township when it was a wilderness and wild animals abounded. The number of antlers in his son's possession bore ample testimony of his skill as a marksman.
During the stirring days of the War of 1812, Mr. Harrison sacrificed his property in Canada rather than fight with the British against his native country. He returned to New York state, where he remained until he came to Erie County.

He and his wife had a family of eleven children; only three were still alive in 1884.
