Hi I'm trying to find out information about my great grandad JOHN HENRY HARRISON (born around 1878) in BARROW-IN-FURNESS. Father - WILLIAM HARRISON (born 1840 in ULVERSTON) Mother - CHRISTINE HARRISON (born 1841 in SCOTLAND) Sister - AGNES (born 1870 in SCOTLAND) Sister - CHRISTINE (born 1875 in BARROW) Brother - ROBERT (born 1880 in BARROW) Brother - WILLIAM (born 1864 in SCOTLAND) At the time of the 1881 Census they were living at 17 Wallace Street, Barrow. I think at some point he went to Canada or America when the gold rush was on. Please contact me if you have any information about any of the above people. Thanks Debbie
