Harrison's of Berea, Kentucky.

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life and I am feeling so good!  Today is a busy day with the grandsons so I am going to post a picture of the early Harrison family of Berea, Kentucky.  This man, Elisha Harrison Jr. gave up part of his land in Berea so the college could be built there.  He was one of the first trustees of the Berean College.
