News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

    Personal Information    |    PDF

    • Name Richard Harrison 
      Gender Male 
      Notes 
      • [maryabwhiteanc.ged]

        He came to America when he was already advanced in years, with his grown
        family, among whom were Richard Jr., and Thomas, and perhaps other sons.
        No mention is made of his wife or her death, it is probable that she did
        in England before the family sailed for New England. He took the oath of
        allegiance in New Haven, 5 Aug 1644. Early in the Spring of that year he
        was one of the company of proprietors who took possession of their
        purchase of "Totoket", now called Branford, in the colony of New Haven.
        He signed the divisions of land at Branford, 1 Jul 1646, which is probably
        the first extant of Branford, and is called "Old Harrison" on the Branford
        records. He remained in Branford until his death. (From Genealogies of
        Early CT Families, p2008.)
