JOHN HARRISON born 1859 in Patterdale, Cumberland. Parents were John & Elizabeth Harrison. According to the 1881 census he had moved to Edinburgh, Scotland and was residing at 12a Cumberland Street as a lodger with the Calder family. William Calder was a tailor and 22 yr old JOHN was also listed as being a tailor - possibly he worked for William Calder? I have been unable to trace what happened to him and/or find any possible descendants. If you have any info you think may tie in with this please get in touch as I have a lot of info re his ancestors!
