Owner with unnamed others of four slaving voyages from London, two of the Neptune and two of the Venus, between 1775 and 1777, two to Calabar and Jamaica and a third to Calabar and the British Caribbean; the fourth was to Africa and Dominica. Given only as ‘Harrison’ in the TASTDB and as Harrison & C. in Lloyd’s Register 1776. Not further identified to date. Possibilities include John Harrison and Gilbert Harrison of Harrison, Ansley & Co.
