Notes

"From Stephanie Harrison ([email protected]) 11/15/99
All children of Joseph and Eliz Simmons were born in Sussex County, VA, where the couple lived for sixteen years. Source: Colonial Dames. The entire family removed to Brunswick Co, Va in 1760, and bought land from Peeples. Joseph died 3 years later.

Hathaway's Register says that Joseph came from William of NC, while TN Cousins says he came from Joseph of MD.

Joseph & Eliz spent 16 years in Surry County having babies so there is bound to be taxes paid, deeds or something. Some clue as to who was Joseph's father and maybe even a Simmons family close by.

1/17/01: We do have definite confirmation of the Harrisons back to Albemarle Parish (all children christened in the Albemarle records appear later in Will of Jos Harrison in Brunswick Va).. except Mary who probably died early. What we don't have is confirmation back to Maryland (or back the next generation) from Albemarle Parrish, MD. So we're still trying to confirm what Worth has written in TN Cousins that the Joseph Harrison from Brunswick Va came from MD."

Will dated 8 Mar 1763.

From: "Rod Medders" October 14, 2000
Just wish I could get my hands on Hathaway's work to see whether HE said (as abstracted by Ray) that our Joseph who md Elizabeth Simmons was son of Jonathan and Ann Harrison. Jonathon owned land on N side of Albermarle River in 1701 and Ray said he was close neighbors with Argyle Simmons. Argall/Argyle was father of John Simmons who married Bridget. John is my candidate to be Elizabeth Simmon's father, but only 'cause Ray said about our Joseph who died 28 May 1763 in Surry Co: "The Simmons family, to which Argall Simmons belonged, lived in St. Andrews Parish in Surry, VA and perhaps acted as the magnet that drew Joseph, son of Jonathan, back to that part of the country before his death".

From Gene Pool 12/27/00 MP's note: wrong Joseph; birth date & place ok, but wrong wife and his will was proved in 1763.
Name Joseph Harrison Birth Date 1722 Birth Place Charles MD Death Date 1785 Death Place Charles MD Spouse Mary Hanson Father Joseph Harrison Mother Verlinda Stone

From: Barbara Good EMail: [email protected] February 04, 2002
The more I study the evidence that we do have, the more certain I am that our Joseph is not descended from Joseph and Verlinda Harrison. I went to Maryland to try to determine if their son Joseph stayed there, but have found no conclusive evidence. I think that would be the best way to determine if their son Joseph could be the one in VA. And I doubt that he descends from Jonathan Harrison of NC, unless Jonathan left VA after Joseph was married, as the evidence does not show that he came "back to VA from NC in his later years".
The names of his children do, however, fit in with the descendants of Daniel Harrison of Surry Co.
