Hi sue , unfortunately I have no more information on James Harrison, I am still trying to find anything at all about him , mam always spoke fondly of him but she was very young when he died , everyone called him Jamie , I remember her saying he used to come through the door & have to bend as was very tall , there is a memorial statue ( tower hill ) in London commemorating him , if I find anything else I will let you know, oh & yes Eleanor (elz ) is my sister   Sharron x
