Mother: Daughter of GLASS? OR WHITE? |
War of 1812 Pension Index, John Harrison enlisted twice in the
war. Once on October 18, 1813 then discharged February 19,
1814. The second time on September 28, 1814 and discharged on
March 27, 1815. It went on to say John and Nancy were married
on April 26, 1838 at Athens, Alabama. That John died February
26, 1876 in Hamilton County, Ill. That he had residence in
Macon County, Tennessee in 1855 and at Logansport, Hamilton,
Ill. in 1871.
Macon County TN is where Humphrey Thomas and his son, Hiram L.
Thomas, lived. Here is what the census has: Lafayette
Precinct, October 18, 1860.
#731--E. Harrison 18, male, b. in Tn. living with the M. Vaughn
family.
#819--J. Harrison 18?, male, laborer b. in Tn.
H. Harrison 13, male, laborer b. in Tn. Both living with the
J.H. Pyron family.
#820--J. Harrison 64 carpenter Tn.
Nancy 47 Tn. cannot read or write
Margaret 14 Tn.
Sylvania 12 Tn.
Lorenzo 10 Tn.
Haley 8 Tn.
P.F. (female) 4 Tn.
#824--G. Harrison, 21, male, laborer, b. Tn. living with the L.
Lee family.
#887--P. Harrison 22 Farmer Tn.
A.M. 21 Tn.
N.E. 1 Tn.
It looks like they are off by 10 years on Nancy's birth. Also,
these are all of the Harrisons in Macon County in that year.
There were none in 1850. I think these are different children
of John and Nancy Harrison. (1st wife's children?)
The one with the letter "G" is probably a Gideon. I saw a
Gideon Harrison in another record in this sparce county. After
looking through all of the available records, I did find a John
Harrison who was in the court minutes. Nothing but a posting of
the court record was made. It is evident to me that the middle
names of some of the children were used. This happened a lot in
my other family lines. It is confusing going from one name to
another when they are the same person.
3. I still have not found John and Nancy in the 1870 Census of
Illinois. I think this census would help solidify the 1860
census. I did find, in White Co., Ill., Hiram Harrison and his
new family in the Enfield Precinct:
#164--Hiram Harrison 21 male works at sawmill Tn.
Laura 19 female Ill.
Charles 5/12 male (Jan.) Ill.
4. I also ran across Humphrey Harrison in the Civil War index.
He served for Co. C, 40th Ill. Inf. He enlisted in August 1861
and was a private. He filed for pension September 17, 1883
Application #495517 and Certificate #361619. His widow,
Emeline, filed July 24, 1908.
Application #900954 and certificate #667863. It might be well
to send for these records. They may tell something about the
family. By the way, the Hamilton Co., Ill. index called
Humphrey "H.R."
In Hamilton County, Illinois. Nancy and some of their children
in the 1880 Census.
Nancy Harrison age 58 born Tenn. Father born Va. Mother born
Carolina
Hiram L. Harrison 32 Tenn. Tn.
Tn.
Eugenia Harrison 22 Tenn. Tn.
Tn.
John Harrison 21 Tenn. Tn.
Tn.
Ormelia F. Harrison 18 Tenn. Tn.
Tn.
Emma Harrison 8 Ill. Tn.
Ill.
Charles E. Harrison 10 Ill. Tn.
Ill.
Hiram, Eugenia, John, and Ormelia were named as Nancy's
children. Emma and Charles were named as her grandchildren.
Living a few houses away was the Humphrey Harrison family. He
was 37 and born in Tenn.
In marriages of Hamilton County, I found the following:
Humphrey Harrison md. Mrs. Emaline Morris, a widow, on August 7,
1864.
Hiram Harrison md. Laura Malone on October 1, 1869.
Arena Harrison md. John Williams on September 15, 1859.
Martha E. Harrison, dau. of Riley Harrison, md. George W. Hunt
on February 2, 1865.
Zoolaby Harrison, dau. of John and Nancy Harrison, md. William
A. York on February 11, 1866.
Elizabeth Harrison, age 18, md. Eli York October 13, 1866.
Sarah J. Harrison, dau. of Riley Harrison, md. Chas. C. Grover
on November 3, 1867.
John Harrison family NOT in the 1870 Census of Hamilton County.
It would seem they would have had to be living nearby because of
the marriages which took place in Hamilton County in
the 1860's. I also looked in Gibson County, Tennessee for the
family in 1850 and 1860 without results. I looked in the census
index for Tennessee for those two years without finding them.
If the census of 1880 is correct as to the birth places of the
children, then they had to be in Tennessee in 1850 and 1860. I
also found no information on them in Sangamon County, IL.
Obit of Julia Mae shows b in Gibson Co. TN: A Joel Wilson
Harrison b 1825 d. Gibson Co. TN 1898 m. 1st Elvira A. Hutchens
and then to a Elizabeth J. McWhorter, b 1820 AL, dau of Hance
McWhirter & Anna Patton. d. Gibson Co. TN. m. 3rd Teely Ford and
4th Mary T. Conley. Anna Patton was a sister to Elizabeth
Patton who m. Davy Crockett, dau of Col. Robert Patton of
Buncombe Co. NC also buried in Gibson Co. TN. The place of
birth is a bit confusing since Gibson County, Tennessee is not
near Nashville. A better bet on their home in Tennessee would
be near the Humphrey Thomas family in Smith and Macon Counties.
They are both near Nashville.
Nancy would be b abt 1822, she was 16 yrs old when they m.26 Apr
1838, Athens, Limestone Co. AL. John would have been about 42
when they m. he must have another wife and maybe other
children. Nancy Thomas's father b VA and Mother b Carolina.
(from 1880 IL census). Nancy Thomas Harrison's children we
have are b 1846 - to 1862 all in TN. Her husband, John, d. 26
Feb 1876. My James H.'s wife Elizabeth b S. Carolina; Nancy
Thomas's mother may be a sister to my Eliza.
From our record: "John Harrison was in the War of 1812 in Capt.
Fleman Hodges company enlisting at Huntsville, AL. pension #
3870 issued 1871. Several land transactions are in the records
of John Harrison with Joseph Harrison, and sold land to Lucas in
1829 (land he got from Joseph) and disappears from the census
after 1830 probably removing to IL. Their home in IL was about
2 miles north of Logansport. This may be the same John Harrison
that married Elizabeth McLung (McClung?) in 1818 in Huntsville,
AL, and Nancy would be his second wife."
Now it seems that they did not go to IL but to TN instead and
finally IL abt 1864. Perhaps they were Union sympathizers - kids
may have been on Union side - got land in IL for Civil War
service?
