Welcome to History Hub
Was your Tom Harrison a Reverend. I found a Tom Harrison on findagrave.com. Birth date is same year and he was born in South Caroline but death date is different. There is a list of his children. go to Rev Thomas Harrison (1779-1852) - Find A Grave Memorial
I also found several Thomas Harrison family trees on familysearch,org. familysearch is a free website, you just need to register to search.
The family trees list Thomas Harrison birthdate as Dec. 13, 1779 and also show his parents. Search Results - tom harrison 1779 • FamilySearch
Hope this helps

Perry Harrison Dec 28, 2020 11:32 AM (in response to Alice Lane)I have the information you mention. Family Search information is incomplete and can't be confirmed, As I said I also have all information from Ancestry. I'm looking for other possible sources.
Thank you for the response

Dear Mr. Harrison,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
As kinship can often be inferred by connections in substitute records such as tax rolls, deeds to property, court records,and probate records or wills, we suggest that you search the North Carolina, Church Records, 1700-1970 index, the North Carolina Probate Records, 1735-1970 index, the South Carolina, Delayed Birth Certificates index, the Minnesota Will Records, 1849-1985, and contact the State Archives of North Carolina, the South Carolina Department of Archives & History and the Minnesota Historical Society to request record searches. Local churches and cemeteries in each area may provide additional information.
We also suggest that you review the FamilySearch Research wikis for Buncombe County, North Carolina Genealogy, York County, South Carolina Genealogy and Minnesota Probate Records.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!

Re: Seeking parents of Tom Harrison
Perry Harrison Dec 31, 2020 12:06 PM (in response to Cara Jensen)Thanks for your help and quick response! I will check out these sources. I am having a difficult time determining his parents. I am very sure he descended from the Shenandoah Valley/Harrisonburg, VA Harrisons but I don't know the exact linkage. Probably one of those Harrisons moved to York District, SC where Thomas was born and then moved just across the border into NC
Thanks again
