I am looking for information about and descendent of Richard Harrison b. 29 Oct 1780 in Virginia and d. 26 Jan 1854 in Ray County, Missouri and is buried in Ray County, Missouri.

He is the second husband of Rachel. Her first marriage was to an unknown Campbell and she had one child with her first husband, Willis Campbell.

There are court documents concerning guardianship of Willis Campbell because his stepfather, Richard Harrison, was said to be treating Willis inhumanely.

Children of Richard Harrisn and Rachel:
1. Richard Harrison b. 1834 in Kentukcy who married Elizabeth.
2. Mahala M. Harrison b. abt 1837 in Kentucky and married Francis Seward.
