Hi Julia,

I have a William Harrison in my tree born 1844 in Glaisdale

1st marriage Mary Dawson b.1849

2nd marriage Emma Elizabeth Julyan Russel

I only have one child down for him Edward

No Thomas as a brother however I have;
John, Martha, Robert, Elizabeth, Ralph, Charles, George and Agnes as his siblings.

I have his parents as Charles Harrison and Mary Lyth.

Whats the chances of this being the smae erson? There are a few similarities???
