Harrison Census of 1790
HARRISON HERITAGE
p. 195 December 1981
THE HARRISON FAMILY
We received from Ron D. Harrison, 1174 Melvina Way, Eugene Oregon 97404
a very nice little book THE HARRISON FAMILY, published by American Genealogical
Research Institute, 1972; 1501 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22209. Portions
of the book are printed here. More to come in the March Issue. (Thanks
Ron).
Census of 1790
Below are listed the names of all the heads of families bearing the
name Harrison in twelve of the thirteen original states (the schedules
of Delaware having been destroyed in 1812 and those of Virginia having
been reconstructed from state enumerations taken in the years 1782, 1783,
and 1785). The list numbers over 450 family heads in the states of Connecticut,
Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Vermont, and Virginia. Following
the name is the county or district (in the case of North and South Carolina)
of domicile of the particular individual. Additional names from a reconstructed
1800 census schedule (compiled from lists of taxpayers) for the state of
Kentucky are also included. Unfortunately, the Capitol was burned by the
British forces during the War of 1812, and the schedules for the areas
that constituted the present states of Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky, New
Jersey, Tennessee, and Virginia were destroyed.
