We now know that F.W.T. Harrison's name was Fitzemeyer William T. Harrison. The name for "T" is still unknown, but based on other evidence may have been for "Thomas". Despite these names, he is almost always listed as "F.W.T.".
He was married to Ann E. Quinby Aug 17, 1845 in Harris County, Texas. Together they had 5 children:
- Lloyd Q. Harrison
- Katie S. Harrison
- Alice V. Harrison
- Mary J. Harrison
- and an unidentified child born before the death of F.W.T. but died by 1870.
F.W.T. died of Yellow Fever in 1866 without leaving a Will. He had a large estate but also had many debts.
