Hi,
Found some info. that I think pertains to my Harris family.>
>First of all...does anyone know who the James and John P. Harris are?
******************
>From the history of Ritchie Co. WV/VA:
>Then after Mr. Berkeley, came Benjamin Webb (as sheriff from 1845-48) with
>James McKinney as deputy for the first two years, and James and John P.
>Harris, for the last year. John Harris was the next in line (1848-9) with
>James and John P. Harris deputies. >**********************>
>In the same long manuscript it also talks about Gen. T.M. Harris. I'm
pretty sure this is Thomas Maley Harris son of John Harris and ??? Maley.
>There were 7 children born to this couple....who were the rest of them?
****************************
>Then I found a will of a Thomas Green who mentions his good friend as exec.
James H. Harris. One of the witnesses was Robert C. Harris.

>My James H. Harris had a son Robert C. Harris.
>I believe this to be my Harris'
*****************************

Then I found deeds of Thomas Green. His tracts of land, known as Draper
Tract, bordered the land of James H. Harris.>
>With this little bit of info. Is anyone able to tell me who the father of
my James H. Harris b.abt.1819 was?
Thanks

Julie
