NOTES (Marianne):
I have some notes on Peter Harrison and Sarah Bunting, and I believe that the source is "Trails West to Red Willow County Nebtaska". Some of the info on Peter must have come from the Ancestral File number 4HGK-F6. Of note, where I have Peter being born in Frederick Co. MD, the book states that "they came from Union Town, Fayette Co., PA about 1810 to settle in Ohio". The family info in the book is mainly looking at the family of Reason Homer Harrison, the son of George W(ashington) Harrison. I didn't bother to write down the year the book was published. I don't remember what I gave you on Peter Harrison before (I didn't print it out before I sent it), but 12 of his children are named in the above Ancestral File
