CONJECTURE: I think Calvin's parents were Isaac and Eunice (Barrett)
Harmison. Isaac is the father of James Arthur Harmison B: 12-22-1841
in Wisconsin and D: 3-2-1909 in Eau Claire. There is also an Arthur A.
Harmison who could be James' son. There is another James Harmison
buried in 1908 in Eau Claire. Probably a son of James Arthur Harmison
and a brother to Arthur Harmison. Calvin was born about the same time
as James Arthur and they died within a year of each other.
!OCCUPATION: Calvin owned a brewery in Eau Claire.
HISTORY: Mary came over at age 18-20. I was told she came from County
Cork Ireland with her father and their large family stopping first in Ohio.
However, according to her death certificate she was born in England! She
was a school teacher. They were Catholic. Her mother died before they
left. She was a short plump woman, quiet and proper. Her death
certificate also stated that she was the wife of Hans Sorenson. I
thought maybe this was some derision of Calvin Harmison until I looked
up and found a death certificate for Hans Sorenson! I don'tknow what to
think anymore?! Her parents are listed as John and Mary Eagan both born
in Ireland. She died at 75 y, 4 m, 11 d.
Nellie was a school teacher in the 9th Ward for about 50 years. She
never married.
Died at 8 mos. buried at Lakeview Cemetery in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
There were supposed to be twin boys, I wonder if one wasn't a stillborn
child.
They were Jehovah's witnesses and they had two daughters.
DEATH: There is a John Egan buried in the Kelley lot in Eau Claire. J.J.
Kelley was married to John's daughter, Margaret (Maggie).
MILITARY: Served in the Civil War out of Wisconsin.
Children's names were taken from the History of Eau Claire County.
