BOONE, BRICE, CONNELL, FOX, HARRISON, LILLIBRIDGE, MCDONALD, OSBORN, OWEN posted by Kathie Harrison on Friday, May 7, 1999

I would like to find out if there are any Lillibridges still living in Saunders county in Nebraska? I am a Harrison and am working on our family tree. My GG aunt Clysta Jane Harrison married Christopher Elra Lillibridge and they lived in Weston, Nebraska.Another Harrison descendant indicated to me that the Lillibridge family was in possession of my 3rd G.grandfather William Brice Harrison's family bible. I would love to locate it and possibly get to see it if there is a Lillibridge that is willing to share. My 2nd Ggrandfather was Richard Harrison who married Elizabeth Connell. Richard was Clysta's brother. Thanks for any help that you can give me.
