    • The name of Nancy’s parents are not known. She is possibly related to Elizabeth (Pare) Dew, who is named in her father’s will. Bethel pare’s will also names Mary Harrison, wife of Jesse Harrison, and Winney Harrison, wife of Elisha Harrison. Jesse Harrison and Elisha Harrison are believed to be brothers of Gideon Harrison.

      Nancy Dew married Henry Harrsion in Halifax Co., NC on 8 Jan. 1821. Nancy presumably died before 1850, when Henry appears in the census with his second wife Eliza.

      For future research, it is noted that James Dew and Allen Dew appear in the 1820 Halifax Co. census.
