emigrated to VA and settled in Stafford Co., was a justice of that county in 1698 and sent by the House of Burgesses on an embassy to the Piscataway Indians in 1699. Burr first shows up in Virginia in 1654, as indentured to a Tho. Meades. Meades is believed to have originaly settled in Maryland and that Burr Harrison came from Maryland with him. Maryland records that might confirm this theory are lost. Church records from the Dettington Parish of Prince William Co. indicate that Burr Harrison was the son of a Cuthbert Harrison and baptized In St. Margaret's Parish, Westminister, England. The original records at St. Margaret's, while not exactly matching the dates from Dettington Parish, seem to be close enough to correlate. They also seem to indicate that Cuthbert and his family had left St. Margaret's Parish by 1652. Again, confirmation of the arrival date of this Harrison family in the New World rests with records from Maryland or Virginia that are missing or have been destroyed. Although there are siblings mentioned in the church records from St. Margaret's, no confirmation of them has been found in colonial records, nor of Burr's parents.
Burr Harrison progressed from an indentured servant, to an overseer, and from there to a tenant. Finally Burr acquired land of his own along the Chopawomsic River, in what is now Stafford Co. This land would remain in the Harrison family at least the next 150 years. Except for those noted to have moved away, this Harrison family remained in northern Virginia, in the area of what is now the counties of Stafford, Prince William, Fauquier and Fairfax.
An Exact copy of entries made in the Vestry book of Bettingen Parish and taken from the register of Overwharton Parish upon which some of this history is based.
"Burr Harrison, now or late of Chappawamsick. In this Parish and County son to Cuthbert Harrison was babtised in the parish of Sant. Magraretts Westminister the 28th day of december 1637 as by Certificate from under the hand of Thomas Wiver Registerer for the said parish to me did appeare." Richard Gibson
"Thomas the son of the said Burr Harrison was born Sept the 7th day of 1665 and departed this life on the 13th day of Aug at 2 o'clock in the morning 1746.
Burr Harrison the son of the said Thos. Harrison was born may the 21st 1699. Thomas the son of the said Burr Harrison was born March the 3rd, 1723.
Jane the daughter of the said Burr Harrison was born the 9th day of december, 1726.
Seth the daughter of the said Burr Harrison was born the 30th day of November, 1729." [S27] [S26] [S932]
