    3. Harris/Myers Looking for information on Geer or possibly Gun (Gunter?) Harris, born about 1831 in Tennessee, his parents both born in Kentucky. On 1880 Benton County Census, Osage Township, he is shown living with his wife Mary, born 1839 in TN, her folks also born in KY. Their children listed in 1880 were Buck, born 1858 in Missouri, Boid, born 1863 in Missouri, Sophrona, born 1867 in MO., General, born 1868 in Arkansas, Harrison, born 1872 in Arkansas and Arthur, born 1876 in Arkansas. Apparently the family lived in Missouri from at least 1858 to 1867, coming to AR around 1868. I'm searching for ANY information on this line, as I suspect Sophrona is the same person as Sophornia Belle Harris, my great grandma, who lived in Marble, Madison County, Arkansas from the late 1800s until her death sometime between 1910 and 1920. Marble township in Madison County borders Benton County, Arkansas. She married William Sim (Simon?) Myers about 1884. Any help is greatly appreciated. Also looking for information on William Sim Myers, who appears as Simon or Simie Myers or Mires. He was born about 1862 either in Tennessee or Indiana and by 1884 he was living in Arkansas, and married Sophornia Belle Harris. They lived in Marble, Madison County, Arkansas and raised 6 children, Myrtle, Walter, Essie, James Edward, Bertha and Irvin Lee. Sophornia died sometime between 1910 and 1920 in Madison County. William Sim (or Simon) died sometime after 1920. His parents were either born in Indiana or Tennessee, according to the census. Not much else is known about him, from the one photo of him, he had blond hair and blue or green eyes. Sophornia was dark haired and eyed, perhaps part Indian? Would like to know where both were from, their parents' names and dates of both their births and deaths. My webpage has more information on them: http://www.atlascomm.net/ecdavis/myers.htm My e-mail address is [email protected] Eddie Davis [email protected]
