Harrison Cemetery behind home at 9331 Main Street, Castalia, NC

On a visit in March of 2014 I counted five markers, one is a CSA 
memorial marker for my great-grandfather Captain John Adams Harrison 
who with his wife Martha Ann Verell Harrison is buried at Green Hill 
Cemetery in Greensboro, NC. 

Two markers are leaning against a large tree; one is for 
great-great-grandmother Elizabeth Taylor Drake Harrison who died 
December 12, 1852, wife of James Harrison 1799-1892. I did not identify 
a marker for James. The other marker against the tree appears to be W.O. 
or W.D. Harrison, this marker was broken and difficult to read.

Two additional markers; one seemed to say J.A.H. could be James or his 
father John, I don’t know as I saw no dates visible. I was not able to 
see/read any markings on the second small marker.  These markers stand 
maybe a foot tall from the ground.

Please note that another listing for the Harrison Cemetery lists Elizabeth 
Louise Harrison and Nancy Reynolds Harrison as children of John and Martha 
and as being buried at this site; that is incorrect; they were John and 
Martha’s grand-children, children of my grandparents James and Mary Adelaide 
(Daisy) Harrison and are buried at Elmwood Cemetery in Charlotte, NC. These 
two girls were my father’s sisters and died as children.
