Mary (Birch) Harrison
(1869- ? )

Mary A. (Birch) Harrison was born on Nov. 8, 1869 in Greene County, PA, the daughter of Samuel and Susan (Miner) Birch.

Little is known of her life. She married John Harrison ( ? - ? ). They had at least one son, Edgar L. Harrison.

By 1906, Mary and John were living in Alexandria, Fairfax County, VA.

In the summer of 1915, Mary's sister Cassie Weir and family drove from Washington, PA for a visit with the Harrisons. The results of the trip generated a story in a Washington newspaper.

Mary was residing in Alexandria in 1935, at the time of the death of her brother JohWiley Birch in Washington, PA.

The fate of the Harrisons is unknown.
