I am a direct descendant of Elisha's son George Harrison. DNA has this line coming from the 7+2 Alexanders who emigrated from Ireland. I am still trying to bridge the gap from Elijah, Elisha's father, on back to the 7+2. In my research I came across the following address which takes you to "Descendants of Elijah Alexander", who is Elisha's father:

This contains valuable information backed up with documentation on Elijah and his multiple descendants. The entry on William is:
William ALEXANDER was born about 1867 in AR.
CENSUS: This maybe the right William Alexander -
1900 Franklin Co, TX, ED 40, JP 1, pg 21b (37)

I hope this will help and if anyone has information on Elijah's father, I would appreciate it.
