Hi Harrison list,
We are looking for information on Isaac Harrison. The only census we can be
sure we found him in (1880 PA) gives his birth place as Ireland. We have an
Isaac Harrison (age 23) in the 1870 Allegheny Co. PA living with Jas (age
62) and Jane (age 65) Harrison. All give birthplace as Ireland. Isaac was
born about 1848, and perhaps died 1898. Family tradition says he left his
family, but we have no proof of that.
We have no idea who Isaac's parents were. In the 1850 census for Allegheny
Co. Pa there are several Harrison families. One is Jno (age 40) and his wife
and children. There is also a Jas (age 25) with his wife and children.
We do not know if Isaac came to this country alone, or with his family. We
found an immigration record for a James and a Jane Harrison, both 44, came
from Ireland in 1848, but there was no Isaac. We found a reference to a
naturalization for an Isaac Harrison 1871, Allegheny Co. Pa, but cannot be
sure it is our Isaac. On that same day and same place, a James and a John
Harrison were also naturalized.
Isaac married Isabella Ewing, Dec.22, 1870 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co.,
PA. Isaac d about 1898, do not know where. Isaac and Isabella had children:
Ella Gorley, b 1874 PA, m Aubree Irwin 14 June 1899, d 1 Jan 1945
Jane R. b 1876, Oct 1876 PA, m William Frank
Elizabeth b Dec 1877 PA, m Eugene Bartow
George E. b Aug.1883 PA
Sarah M. b Sept 1884 PA, d Nov. 1908 PA
We are at a dead end on this line. We hope we have some cousins out there
somewhere.
