Subject: HARRISON Family Photograph
Date: Sat, 15 Oct 2005 22:15:21 -0700


I've "rescued" an old photograph of Henry Horace HARRISON which was taken at
the J. H. Proctor Studio in Hastings, Minnesota. The photograph appears to
have been taken in the 1880's with Henry likely in his 20's at the time.
Based on limited research I believe that this may be a photograph of Henry
Horace HARRISON b. 3 Dec 1866 in Ravenna, MN to parents Ezekiel HARRISON and
Clarinda ORR. Henry married Mary Abigail TANDY on the 25th of Dec 1889.
Henry died in January 1960.



In 1880, Henry was living with his parents and siblings in Ravenna, MN with
census records indicating the following:



Ezick HARRISON, age 51, born in England, a Farmer was living with his wife,
Clarade HARRISON, age 45, born in OH, to PA born parents. Living with the
couple were 9 children including:



Floror age 23, born in OH (female)

Newton age 22, born in OH

Cyrus age 19, born in OH

Hiram age 14, born in MN

Henry age 13, born in MN

Marion age 12, born in MN

Jemin age 11, born in MN (female)

Viola age 8, born in MN

Benjamin age 6, born in MN



Also living with the family was Samuel ORR age 82, born in PA and likely
Clarinda's Father, noting that his parents were also born in PA. A laborer
was also living with the family on the farm at the time, Edward QUIN age 60,
born in Ireland.



I'm hoping to locate someone from this family so that this wonderful old
photograph can be returned to its rightful place with the family. If you
are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact
me.



Thanks,

Shelley
