Further, Ralph Harrison (born 1805) was a Tailor, he died 1838 before his son Ralph was born.  Ralph jnr (born 1838) became a mariner in the merchant service.  I have no record of his death, I suspect he died at sea as he not included on any census since 1851.

Try Sunderland  Central Library (Local History Section). They have the Corder Manuscripts  which include details of old Sunderland families.

Bill,
Thank you for your message.  Do you know if the information is online?  I now live in New Zealand, and obviously cannot visit in person.
Thanks Trish

Hi Trish

I looked in the Corder Manuscripts and found several Harrison families but there were also several Ralphs. One family in particular was written about in some detail but most of the dates were in the 1600s and 1700s so I was unable to connect them with your family. Others of course were later.

Perhaps you could e-mail the Local History Section at Sunderland Central Library and ask for photocopies of Harrison pedigrees.
