- Names are from Reuben Harrison will (b 1749 Amherst Co, Va- 1824 Barren Co, KY ), his wife’s will (Peggy Franklin Harrison) and the Harrison-Franklin Bible. Names in will - Kiziah, King, Nimrod, Sophina, Jackson, Rhoda, Emanuel, Peg, Sophia, Breaner, Harris. Kiziah only one mentioned in Peggy Harrison’s will. The Harrison-Franklin Bible was willed to Matilda Caroline Harrison Franklin from her mother, Peggy Franklin Harrison in 1828. So probably names written after that date were written by members of the Franklin family. Names and birth years: Derrezer 1792; Jiney or Joney 1813; Petlina 1814; Jacob 1817; George 1828; Jefferson 1829; Sarah Ann 1830; Margaret 1831; Airless 1832; Samuel W 1840 (served as substitute for Wm Henry Franklin in Civil War); Harriet 1842
