    per Bailies Party of 1820 Settlers by M D Nash:
    He was elected to lead a subdivision of Bailie's party, but was replaced by George Anderson. He was at Cuylerville at the end of June 1820.
    CO 4843 no.320, Ellis to Adams, Harrison etc., 19.5.1820; CO 8541, Hayward's notes; CO 136 no.64, address of the Cuylerville settlers, 30.6.1820.
    ('William Harrison' may have been a name assumed by Kemp Knott in order to conceal his identity when he left England. His reason for this subterfuge is not known, and he seems to have reverted to the use of his real name from about 1822.)
