Harrison Family

Information taken from Grewelthorpe & Kirkby Malzeard Parish Registers, Census, School records, Memorial Inscriptions in Churchyard [M.I.]
Bramley Grange and Kexmoor are part of Grewelthorpe, see history section of this web site.

Thanks to Martin Briscoe for some of this information.
Martin would like to hear from any descendants of Edward Harrison [1820] of Grantley & also John Hammond of Canada. See Hammond family details.

Jennifer Treadwell would like to hear from anyone with information about Thomas Dalton Harrison [1817-1874] & his wife Elizabeth McRobb.

Joyce Harrison is seeking information about the Harrisons from Winksley. I am researching the George Harrison (1821 born Winksley) family from Winksley. George Harrison married a Sarah (born 1827 Laverton) who I think might be a Clark but I can find no details of Sarah’s parentage. Any information would be gratefully received. Most of their children, including Clark Harrison are shown on this site.

Thanks to Alys Jones who sent information about John & Isabella Calvert.

Todd Harrison sent the following request Nov. 2011.
Specifically, I am interested in contacting the living Harrison’s in the Yorkshire area to exchange additional information about Harrison family history.
Thank you

William Harrison [Bullet]. Blacksmith
An excerpt from his obituary:-
He was humorous and sincere, ever ready to help. Small in stature but a 1st class blacksmith. He excelled at sport – cricket and billiards. He was a shrewd conversationalist, no subject being beyond him. He had a deep understanding of day to day events. A prodigious memory of bygone dates and happenings. Nearly all his 87 years were spent in Kirkby Malzeard, his birthplace, except for a spell in the Royal Engineers in WW1 and a short time in Grewelthorpe. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
