Hi everyone,

I'm sending a message I received from the Harris-Hunters List because it
includes some possible Germanna connections.

Hi all!

I certainly have a success story! Having put out several queries, both
in Harris-Hunters-L and through other Internet sources I heard from
three people that helped me find my Harris family: The Robert Riley
Harris family, and in doing so also found new cousins.
I now know that the father of Robert Riley was Thomas Harris of
Virginia, and I know of his brothers and sisters. None of us, though,
have been able to trace our Harris family further back than Thomas F/H
Harris. If anyone should have some information on this family I would
be most appreciative if you would contact me.

Thanks.

Charlene
