HARRISON
GENERAL HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
The name Harrison is of Danish extraction: indicated by the use of the
syllable "son" as the ending of the name. This was customary of the Danes and
has been in constant use in England since the Danish invasion. The name is
still found in Scandinavian countries in the original form of Arysen.
Well down into Tudor times, closely-knit settlements of descendants of these
restless Danish sea-rovers survived in England. They were surrounded by,
but not absorbed into, the population of the kingdom.
Such a conclave existed in the Lake District of Cumberland and Westmoreland
CountVies. To this group the Harrison family belonged.
In the 14th century a new impulse to migrate seemed to sieze these decendants
of Danish "pirates". In a sx^arm, they began to leave their homes.
One branch of the Harrison family went due East and settled dovm again in what
is now Durham and Yorkshire Counties.
Another branch of Harrisons traveled due South and came to rest in Derbyshire
where they soon intermarried with families of gentle birth. There had been
Harrisons in the Royal Service at Court since the first Tudor.
After two centuries in Derbyshire, that branch of Harrisons again split. One
branch settled in Northhamptonshire and became knovm as "Gobion Manor"
Harrisons. The other branch settled in and around London and became known as
the "Goldsmith" Harrisons.
Both branches of the Harrison family used the same coat of arms.
By the 15th and 16th centuries, Harrisons V7ere scattered all over England.
It is probable that John Harrison of Cambridge, with whom this booklet begins,
was from Derbyshire and was the common ancestor of the Derbyshire, and Durham
and/or Yorkshire Harrisons.
The descendants herein charted were of the "Goldsmith" Harrison branch of the
family.
THE FIRST HARRISONS TO AMERICA
A number of Harrisons settled Virginia in the 17th Century. The connection
between but few of them is known. Those who emigrated before or around 1630
apparently died without issue.
Just because they were interesting and deserve to be remembered, a few of
their stories are herein told.
1. Richard Harrison, Master's Mate of Bartholomew Gilbert's expedition to
America. Richard and Gilbert were killed by Indians. It is interesting to
think of the brief, shining hour Richard spent on the shores of America. He
must have been a young and personable man to have secured the coveted position
of Master's Mate with the nephew of Sir Walter Raleigh, Bartholomew Gilbert.
Either this or his connections in England were extremely good. The Gilbert
family had long been noted for their sea conquests and merits. Perhaps just
serving with a man of Gilbert's ilk was reward enough for Richard. Be that
as it may, Richard has the doubtful distinction of being the first Harrison
to be killed by Indians in America. Richard was related to the branch of
Harrisons with which this booklet deals.
2. Harmon Harrison came to the colonies about 1608. Harmon probably died of
yellow fever and lies in some unmarked grave. He was born in Holland but of a
family descended from the Colchester, Essex County, England, Harrisons. He
came to Jamestown in the ship "Gift of God". It has been assumed he died
without a family but a Harnnon Harrison showed up in records of North Carolina
later on - possibly he lived longer than was originally thought.
3. James Harrison, Ensign. At that time, the rank of Ensign was applied to
the British Army, not the navy. James lived in Virginia from 1618 to 1622.
He married Anne Oliffe who came to Virginia in 1618 at age thirteen. James
was killed in the Indian Massacre. Anne escaped. Fifty-two people were killed
in the particular massacre, including women and children. The colonists were
caught unprepared as the Indians showed outward signs of friendship and
hospitality. Anne later married Justinian Cooper.
4. George Harrison lived in Virginia six years and died in 1624. George was
the brother of Sir John Harrison and they were sons of William Harrison of
Lancaster, England. George was in the England jail on a charge of horse stealing
(knew there had to be one!). Horse stealing was a serious crime in those days.
Through the influence of his brother, John, his sentence of hanging was reduced
to bandishment to the colonies never to return. He was undoubtedly financed
by Sir John as he soon was a man of influence and means in Virginia. He married
Margaret Fanshawe. George escaped the Indian Massacre that took so many
colonists. He seemed to have a very disagreeable disposition as he was in
several court suits with his neighbors. After a violent quarrel with Captain
Richard Stephens, which resulted in a duel, George died of wounds. George and
Sir John were also related to the Harrisons charted in this booklet.
5. Ralph Harrison, of the Staffordshire Harrisons. Ralph, too, survived the
Indian Massacre but died in Elizabeth City, Va. , in 1623. A plague was rampant
then; probably the cause of his death.
A MURDER MYSTRY
There is absolutely no excuse for this story except no booklet is complete
without a murder mystry.
A William Harrison (older brother of Benjamin Harrison of "Gobion Manor") at
age 70, walked out one day to collect the rents from his estate. He just
didn't come back. This was in 1660 in England.
His servant, John Perry, appeared the next morning telling a confused story of
being waylayed and robbed.
Edward Harrison, William's son, accused the Perry family of murdering his father.
Mrs. Joan Perry, John, and another son were executed; she as a witch.
Two years later, William came back and told an involved story of being
attacked, wounded, robbed and put aboard a Turkish ship and sold as a slave.
William escaped and, after many adventures and hardships^made his way home.
History generally agrees that Edward procured his father's abduction in order
to reap the fruits of his stewardship.
INSERT ON THE ANCESTRY OF PRESIDENTS HARRISON
The ancestry of William Henry Harrison, 9th President of the United States,
and his grandson, Benjamin Harrison, 23rd President of the United States,
has never been settled to the satisfaction of historians.
There are many claims, counter-claims, opinions and stories - none of which
can be proved beyond question.
That a relationship existed between the Presidents branch of the Harrison
family and the branch about which this booklet is written is not questioned.
How it existed is open for argument .
A direct descent is not possible. This is well documented. The relationship
is distant and finds its base in England, not America.
Just as a matter of interest, a brief history of the known ancestry of the
Presidents follows: and some theories on the unknoxjn ancestry.
KNOWN ANCESTRY OF THE PRESIDENTS HARRISON
Benjamin Harrison came to Virginia before 3/15/1633-3A; when he was signed as
Clerk of the Council. He was young - in his thirties - and a well educated
man. He was said to have a brother. Some say the brother's name was Peter,
some say Richard. Some say the brother came to the colonies and some say he
stayed in England. Anyway, Benjamin married Mary. Mary's last name is
questionable also. The Flood family seems to have the most evidence to back
up a claim to her.
Benjamin, Clerk of the Council, and Mary had two sons: Ben j amin and Peter.
Benjamin died about 16A5 and his widow, Mary, married Benjamin Sidway of
Surry County. They had one son, Thomas Sidway. Mary's will, dated 3/1687-88,
mentioned only her sons Benjamin Harrison and Thomas Sidway. Evidently Peter
died young without issue.
Benjamin, son of Benjamin and Mary, was bom 9/20/1645 and died 1/30-1712-13.
He married Hannah, bom 2/13/1651-52, died 2/16/1698-99. They had children:
Sarah, Benj amin , Nathaniel, Hannah and Henry.
Benjamin, son of Benjamin and Hannah, was born about 1673, and died 1710. He
married Elizabeth Burwell, daughter of Lewis Burwell. Elizabeth died 1734, age
57. Their children: Benj amin , Elizabeth, and Nathaniel.
Benjamin, son of Benjamin and Elizabeth, died 1744. He married Anne Carter,
daughter of Robert Carter. He and Anne had nine children: the third child
was Benjamin.
Benjamin, son of Benjamin and Anne, was bom 1726, died 1791. He was one of X
the signers of the Declaration of Independence. He married Elizabeth Bassett.
They had seven children; the youngest was William Henry.
William Henry, son of Benjamin and Elizabeth , was bom 2/9/1773 and died
4/4/1841 while President of the United States. He married Anna Symmes,
daughter of John C. Symmes. They had ten children; the fifth child was
John Scott.
John Scott, son of William Henry and Anna, was born 4/4/1804, and died 5/1878.
He married Elizabeth Irwin. They had nine children; the second child was
Benjamin.
Benjamin, son of John Scott and Elizabeth, was bom 8/20/1833, and died 3/13/1901,
He married Caroline Lavina Scott and they had two children. Russell Benjamin
and Mary. Caroline died while Benjamin was 23rd President of the United States.
After Caroline's death, Benjamin married a widow, Mrs. Dimmick, and had one
child: Elizabeth.
UNKNOWN POSSIBLE ANCESTORS OF THE PRESIDENTS HARRISON
Since Benjatnln Harrison, Clerk of the Council of Virginia in 1634, is the
earliest certainly kno\im ancestor of the Presidents, his identity is the one
in question and the identity of a possible brother.
1. One theory is that this Benjamin Harrison was the son of the regicide.
General Thomas Harrison, who was instrumental in the beheading of King
Charles I of England; and who xjas himself beheaded later on, Charles
P» Keith in his book, "Ancestry of Benjamin Harrison" discredits this by
proving General Thomas Harrison was a contemporary of the Benjamin who
emigrated to America. Any son of General Thomas Harrison's would have
been too young to qualify for Clerk of the Council in 1634. These two
Harrisons were, however, related.
2. A Rev. Joseph Harrison brought this tradition to New York early in the
19th Century; Four brothers from Yorkshire, England, emigrated to
America during the reign of Charles I. They v;ere: Thomas, Richard,
Benjamin, and Nathaniel Harrison. A fifth brother, Edward, a member of
the Clergy, remained in England. Nothing has been found to connect this
family \<r±th Benjamin, Clerk of the Council in Virginia. There were
Harrisons of the same names in America at that time, but they were
accounted for and living in different parts of the country.
3. There was a Benjamin Harrison of Aldham, England, considered a possibility.
He was the son of Rev. Francis Harrison who died in 1632. Benjamin of
Aldham had brothers: John of London and William. Records show that six
years after Rev. Francis died, his widov; and sons Uilliam and Benjamin
were living in Ipswich, England. Benjamin of Aldham had a son, Benjamin,
but he was too young to be Clerk of the Council in 1634.
4. J.H. Harrison, in his book, "Settlers by the Long Grey Trail", tells of
three brothers who lived and died in England* John, Benjamin and Thomas,
The brother Thomas, bom 1695, married Hannah Morrison and had six sons:
John, Benjamin, Thomas, Samuel, Daniel and James, All the sons came to
America. All enlisted in the Revolutionary War. All had families except
Thomas, Jr. All but John and Thomas, Jr., were killed in the war.
The brother Benjamin had sons: Benjamin and Robert; both sons came to
America. Robert settled in Maryland and had a son. Governor Robert
Harrison of Maryland. Benjamin settled in Virginia and is said by some
county histories (History of Audrain County, Mo., for one) to be the
ancestor of the Presidents.
VJhile Harrisons of this name did all these things, their claim to the
ancestry of the Presidents Harrison is late in time and not recognized
by authorities.

5. Worth S. Ray, in his book "Tennessee Cousins", thinks Benjamin Harrison,
Clerk of the Council, was son of Richard Harrison, the Master's Mate v;ho
was killed in 1603 by Indians on the Virginia coast. Richard left money
with a brother, Peter Harrison of Warmington, only for a son, Peter. No
mention was made of a son, Benjamin. There is a strange coincidence to
back up Worth S. Ray's claim. Richard Harrison married Margaret Pilkington.
A Margaret Pilkington and her husband, William, were found living next to
Benjamin Harrison, Clerk of the Council, in Virginia - as a mother or a
close relative, would follow to a new covmtry and settle nearby.
Francis Burton Harrison, writer and scholar, soent many years in England attempt-
ing to solve the mystery of the identity of Benjamin Harrison, Clerk of the
Council. He submitted possible answers:
6. There was a family of Harrisons of Stationer Company of London. One member
of this family, John, left a will in 1612 and mentioned four sons: John,
Philip, Josias, and Benjamin. Of all the members of this family and of all
of John's Sons, Benjamin is the only one who did not appear later in the
records of the Stationer Company of London as apprentice or freeman. As a
member of this company, this Benjamin would have been a well educated man
as was Benjamin of Virginia.
John, the son, left a will in 1652 in which he mentioned an "unkind son,
Richard", who left him in old age to go to America. This Richard was
Identified as Richard Harrison of New Haven, Conn. Some authorities claim
this Richard was the brother of Benjamin, Clerk of the Council in Virginia.
This Harrison family was related to the Cambridge Harrisons.
7. Many authorities believe that Benjamin Harrison, Clerk of the Council in
Virginia, had a brother, Peter, who was Clerk of the Peace in Cambridge,
England, in 1632.
This Peter, Clerk of the Peace in Cambridge, was bom in 1607 in Belton Co.,
Rutlandshire, England. He married Eleanor Ryvers in Cambridge in 1627-8.
A daughter, Ellen, was bom 1630 and a son, George in 1632-3. North
Harrison, grandson of John of Cambridge, assisted Peter to this appointment
as Clerk of the Peace.
Peter Harrison of Wamiington left a will in 1605 . In this will were
mentioned sons John and Peter; a daughter, Eleanor; and Peter, son of
Richard Harrison, deceased.
In 1632, Eleanor, by then widow of the Bishop of Ross, wrote the Privy
Council of England with complaints about Irish land grants and also stated
that her nephew, Peter Harrison, Clerk of the Peace of Cani>ridge, had
improperly withheld funds from her.
These children of Peter of Warmington are interesting and their stories are
worth the telling:
8
The elder son, John Harrison, was Governor of Bermuda in 1623. In about 1600,
he was with the ill-fated Earl of Essex in the campaign against Ireland. The
Earl of Essex returned to England in six months to lose his head under Queen
Elizabeth. John, however, stayed three full years and returned on the ascession
of King James to the throne. John entered the service of James' eldest son.
Prince Henry, and stayed with him ten years until the death of Prince Henry.
After this time, John became acting Governor of Bermuda. John was either very
careless or a poor judge of money matters as he returned to England in debt and
never recovered his fortunes. As a man of influence, however, in Bermuda, John
would have been influential in obtaining the post of Clerk of the Council in
Virginia for a son or kinsman.
The younger son, Peter Harrison II of Hindley Co., Lancaster, was born 1591 and
died 1673. He \<ras t\jice married; the first time to Elizabeth Ash ton who died
1626-7. Peter x<ras an attorney and sent all four of his sons to the University
of Cambridge. After Peter's death, his trjo older sons by Elizabeth, sued their
step-mother for a larger share of their father's estate. Soon after this, the
two sons, Peter and John, removed to Virginia. The one son, Peter, was identi-
fied as Rev. Peter Harrison of Cheadle. He was born 1615 and would have been
too young to have been Clerk of the Peace in 1632 .
The daughter, Eleanor (Ellen) Harrison, like her brother, John, entered court
service and attended the frivolous Queen of King James. She subsequently
married David Lindsay, Bishop of Ross, as his second wife. The Bishop of Ross
had sons by his first marriage. One, David Lindsay, later became Rev. David
Lindsay of Lancaster Co., Va. Eleanor and the Bishop lived at an outpost and,
when people visited (as they and their servants were wont to do in those days) ,
there was no place further to go - so they just stayed and ate the Bishop and
Eleanor out of house and home. Eleanor urged the Bishop to ask the King for
aid. The Bishop was genuinely fond of King James; having fought with him in
his youth, accompanied the King to claim his bride, and baptized the little
Prince Charles - later to become the unhappy King Charles I of England, Bishop
Ross was reluctant to make demands of his King: so Eleanor petitioned for land
grants in Ireland. The King refused but later granted the Bishop's oldest son,
Sir Jerome Lindsay, vast lands in Ireland. By 1613 the old Bishop was dead.
Some twenty years later, Eleanor bombarded the Privy Council; reciting the story
of the Irish land grants and complaining about her nephew, Peter Harrison, Clerk
of the Peace in Cambridge.
So - Eleanor's brother, Peter Harrison II of Hindley, had a son, Peter, but he
was too young to be Clerk of the Peace in 1632. Richard Harrison, the Master's
Mate killed by Indians, had a son, Peter, but Richard was thought too old to be
another brother of Eleanor's; thus precluding his son, Peter, from the position
of Eleanor's nephew. By process of elimination, this leaves only John of
Bermuda as the father of Peter, Clerk of the Peace in Cambridge and, if
tradition is to be believed, the father of Benjamin, Clerk of the Council of
Virginia and ancestor of Presidents Harrison.
8. IJhen the Derbyshire branch of Harrisons split, one branch became known as
"Gobion Manor" Harrisons and the other branch became the "Goldsmith"
Harrisons. A descendant of Stephen Harrison of Westmoreland Co., Thomas
Harrison, married Elizabeth Bernard. This was in the time of King Henry VIII.
Thomas and Elizabeth were "Gobion Manor" Harrisons and had seven sons:
Thomas, Jonathan, Joseph, William, Richard, Francis, and Benjamin. After
Thomas died, Elizabeth married one Henry Travel of Wan-zick and the family
seemed to disappear. The one son, the youngest, was born in December of 1594.
In 1628, a Benjamin Harrison in Bermuda signed a "Poor Planters' Petition"
along with other planters including a Robert Harrison, possible son of
North Harrison. All evidence points to the fact that this Benjamin was the
son of Thomas and Elizabeth of "Gobion Manor". Dr. Alexander Brovm and
Charles P. Keith both agree that the Benjamin who signed the petition in
Bermuda was the same Benjamin who shov7ed up in Virginia a few years later
and became the Clerk of the Council and the ancestor of the Presidents
Harrison.
Take your choice of any of these stories. One nice thing is - no one, at this
writing, can prove you are wrong!

HARRISON
I JOHN HARRISON - of St. Andrews, Cambridge, England. His will was recorded in
1538. In the portion of this will that is known, only one son is identified
vrith certainty: Peter.
Children:
1. PETER HARRISON - Died 1593.
2. *Hugh - This was Sir Hugh Harrison, curate of Wilmslow Parish in 1548-50.
One of his sons, Peter, was alive in 1584. At that time, Peter was made
heir of Hugh's brother's widow, Elizabeth.
3. *George - His will was recorded in 1582. He married Elizabeth and they
lived in St. Andrew Holbom. Elizabeth made her vjill on 8/13/1584 in which
she left property in London to Peter Harrison, son of her deceased husband's
brother, Hugh. It is assumed George and Elizabeth v/ere childless.
*Hugh and George Harrison were definitely brothers and were probably sons of John:
if not, certainly his nephews.
Hugh had at least one son, Peter. It is thought that this x^ias the Peter who lived
for a time in London and later in Warmington. He married Margery. Margery's
last name may have been Legh or Molineaux as in Peter's v/ill he mentioned his
brother-in-law, Mr. Legh, Rector of Standish; and also gave an inheritance received
from William Molineaux, gent., to Margery.
This will of Peter of Warmington, made in 1605, is most interesting in light of
family relationships. In this will, Peter mentioned his elder son, John
(identified as John Harrison who was Governor of Bermudas in 1623), his son,
Peter (identified as Peter Harrison II of Hindley) and a daughter, Eleanor (Ellen)
(identified as the second wife of David Lindsay, Bishop of Ross). There also was
mention of another Peter Harrison, son of Richard Harrison, deceased.
Just v^fhat relation this Richard was to Peter of Warmington was not stated in the
will. It is thought they were brothers as Richard would seem too old to be
another son. A close relationship, surely, as Richard entrusted Peter of
Warmington with money for his son, Peter.
This Richard Harrison is identified as the one who married Margaret Pilkington
at Standish in Lancashire in 1583. He was Master's Mate of Bartholomew Gilbert's
expedition to the Nev? England coast. In a search for the lost colonists of
Roanoke Island, Richard and Bartholomew were killed by Indians on the coast of
what is now Virginia. This was in 1603; four years before the founding of
Jamestown.
11
TT PETER HARRISON - Died 1593. Peter lived in Cambridge although his son, William,
vKis bom at Swavesey in Cambridgeshire. Only two of Peter's sons are definitely
established: William and Peter of Swavesey.
Children:
1. William - His will, dated 4/1/1620, mentioned his brother, Peter of Swavesey,
and Peter's children. William also mentioned his o\m son, John, and left
a legacy to John if he returned '"from beyond the seas" within five years.
William was an attorney for the Toxto of Cambridgeshire. Along with North
Harrison (either his brother or his cousin) , he was church warden of Great
St. Mary, Cambridge, for many years.
2. Peter - Lived at Swavesey. It is known he had a family.
3. *North - Served as Toxim Clerk in Cambridge and as church warden at Great
St. Mary, Cambridge. In 1628, North was influential in obtaining an
appointment as Clerk of the Peace in Cambridge for young Peter Harrison,
nephew of Eleanor, wife of the Bishop of Ross. TT^70 of North's sons went
to Virginia and one, possibly, to Bermuda.
4. ANTHONY HARRISON - Bom 1563 at Over.
There may have been other children.
*North Harrison was definitely the grandson of John of Cambridge. It is most
likely he was the son of Peter of Cambridge but he may have been a nephew.
■•■) : ■ ■■
12
III ANTHONY HARRISON - Bom 1563 at Over. Sx,7avGsey and Over adjoin one another
and Anthony was bom while Peter of Cambridge x;as living in Swavesey. It
is knoT-m they were related; probably son, possibly a nephew. All members
of this family designated themselves as "gent." Anthony did likewise.
Anthony was a lawyer and, as such, wrote and was remembered in, the Xi/ill
of a Thomas Cropley in 1608. It is highly probable there was a relationship
through marriage between the Harrisons and the Crop leys. Francis Burton
Harrison, an authority on the Harrison family, commented that this branch of
Harrisons was noted for its strict sense of piety and nonconformity.
Children:
1. ANTHONY HARRISON - to Virginia by 1650.
There were undoubtedly other children.
Note: It is very difficult to be sure of the exact relationship of this family.
Related they all were but the degree sometimes is in question.

13
IV ANTHONY HARRISON - To Virginia by 1650. Anthony was in Northumberland Co.,
VA. in 1653, but he may have arrived in the colonies much earlier. He was
induced to come or came with Samuel Bonnam. They may have been related
through inter-marriage of the Harrison-Rust-Bonnam families. Decendants of
• Thomas Cropley and other families related to the Harrisons in England - the
Raynes, the Dinleys and the Tomlinsons - were found living around and about
Anthony in Virginia.
Children:
1. RICHARD HARRISON - Patented lands in 1664.
2. Andrew - Died 1686, He married Thomasin Rayne, widov/ of Rowland Rayne
^^7ho died in Accomac Co., Va., in 1639-40. Thomasin had a son, Andrew
Rayne, by Roi<rland. Andrev; and Thomasin lived in VJestmoreland Co., Va.
Children:
(A) Robert - Bom 10/23/1674.
(B) William - Bom 5/14/1677.
(C) Anne - Born 1/25/1679.
(D) There were probably three other sons: Andrew, Thomas and John.
Note: There may have been other children of Anthony's. At least one authority
believes there were two other sons: George and James.
More authorities agree that George, at least, v/as the son of John Harrison v;ho
came to Westmoreland Co., Va,, in 1654 with his brother. Dr. Jeremiah and
Dr. Jeremiah's wife, the former Frances Wingreave. John and Jeremiah were sons
of Henry Harrison of St. Nicholas, Colchester, England. They were related to
Anthony; although they were "Gobion Manor" rather than "Goldsmith" Harrisons.
Dr. Jeremiah bought land in Queen's Creek, York Co., Va., near his close kinsmen
but he did not live long. His v7idow, Frances, married Giles Brent as his second
wife. There was no issue either marriage. George married and had children:
Samuel, Thomas, George (married Anne Rust), John, William, James and Peter
Willoughby Harrison.
James married Elizabeth Mott, vjidow of George Mott, in 1664 and lived in Richmond
Co., Va. Much evidence can be gathered to sunport the probability that James was
another son of Anthony's rather than a descendant of John's; this through
association and inter-marriage x^ith knovm family friends of Anthony's branch of
the Harrison family. Known children of James and Elizabeth:
(A) Jael - Died 1733. Married(l) William Williams who died in 1712 and
lived in Essex Co., Va. Jael married (2) Richard Johnson who died
1726 and lived in Spotsylvania Co., Va. Jael left the plantation in
Spotsylvania to her son, James Williams.
(B) Robert - Married Mary and died 1720.
(C) Andrew - Born 1685, died 1730. Married (1) Mary Ball Rosier, widOT7
of John Rosier, Jr., in 1706. Married (2) Mary Lovell (bom 1699,
died 1745), daughter of Robert Idvcll and the former Ursula Nicholas.
Mary married Christopher Erdington as his second wife after Andrew's
death. Andrew had tx/elve children in all; most of them lived in
Albemarle Co., Va.
14
V RICHARD HARRISON - Patented lands in 1664. These lands were in New Kent County
on the Mattaponi River and a branch of Dragon Swamp; one of whose headrights
was a son, Andrew. Very little else is known abjut Richard. Records were few
in those days and not many survived the years.
Children:
1. ANDREW HARRISON - Will 1718.
Note: There were probably other children. Lack of court records of Richard would
indicate that he probably died rather young; before he had many children.
15
VI ANDREW HARRISON - Will 1718. Andrew lived in the Rappahonnock Valley by 1704
in St. Mary's Parish, Essex County, Va. He married Eleanor.
