Trying to find Harrison

In the 1861 census my G.Grandfather John Harrison b.1811, his wife Catherine b.1803, son John b.1840 and daughter Margaret b.1845 were living in Liverpool. All were born in Whitehaven, Cumberland. I know that John Harrison senior was to remain in Liverpool for the rest of his life - having a second marriage by the time of the l871 census to Ellen (Bamforth) b.1823, Hunslet, Yorkshire. His daughter Margaret married a Borrowdale and had a son David b.1869. If anyone out there has any Whitehaven/Liverpool connections with the name of Harrison I would be interested to hear from you.
