  1. 1.  Captain Joseph Harrison

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Military Service: Abt 1780; American Revolution (US)

    Notes:

    Notes from Ann Marie Harrison, November 2008:
    The three surviving sons of Captain Joseph Harrison (Leonard G. Harrison, Marenus Harrison, and Charles Harrison) all settled in Nankin Township, Wayne County, Michigan in the 1800s. All three sons served America in the War of 1812, and all had large families. My records show that David Haynes and Margaret Ewart were married in Northumberland Co., Derry Township, PA on 30 Mar 1790. I believe the US Federal Census for 1820 New York State shows Leonard G. Harrison in Geneseo, Ontario County, NY (home to some of the Ewart family and Haynes family).

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Military Service: Abt 1812; War of 1812 (US)

    Notes:

    I do not know where Leonard G. Harrison or his wife, Mary (Haynes) Harrison are buried, but my guess would be on Harrison family land in the area where they were living in Nankin Township, Wayne Co., MI. The three Harrison brothers bought and sold land in that area, as well as residing there. Leonard G. Harrison worked as a land assessor. From what I heard, their father, Joseph Harrison, originally bought the land in Michigan with back pay he received from his service as a soldier in the American Revolution. For some time Captain Joseph Harrison served under Colonel Marenus Willett, hero of Fort Stanwix, Rome, NY. (Ann M. Harrison - Nov2008)

    Leonard married Mary Ann Haynes in Jun 1815. Mary (daughter of David Haynes and Margaret Ewart) was born on 28 Nov 1792 in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania; died in 1844 in Wayne County, Michigan; was buried in Union Chapel Cemetery, Inkster, Wayne County, Michigan.
