Hello, Kevin,
There seem to be a lot of Daniel folks with first name Harrison
back in those days. And several unrelated, but intermingled family
lines to add confusion. (How many lines are there now? 20 to 30?)
After 1865 there was another Harrison Daniel living on the old
plantation near Danielville Georgia. We have no idea at all as to
his parents, except that he was a mulatto. Some suspect he was a
son of one of the Daniel boys. He may have descendants living in
that area, but I haven't found any willing to think genealogy.

Hi Jack,
??? Wasn't this Harrison Daniel from the line of James Daniel
1664-1742 of Essex County, VA? Possibly a son of James Daniel III
who moved to Caroline County, VA in the late 1760s or early 1770s?
Or has Y DNA testing changed this assignment? BTW, Bedford County,
VA did not exist until 1754.
I will have to double check, but I think the Y DNA of? the
Harrison Daniel who died in Laurens County, SC matches that of the
line of James Daniel 1664-1742.? I have birth places of both Essex
and Bedford Counties, VA for him but suspect that Essex is
correct.
The Y DNA of the Harrison Daniel who died in Indiana does not
match the line of James Daniel 1664-1742 or the Harrison Daniel
who died in Laurens, SC.
?? There is no connection between James Daniel 1664-1742 of Essex
and Roger Daniel. It does not appear that anyone can prove descent
from Roger Daniell using primary records, which is the first step
in determining the Y DNA of a line.... The Y DNA of the line of
Roger Daniell is not proved.
Best,
Kevin
