Most of the males in the Harness family are named John. My grandfather's name was John Harness and he married a Goldie Smith but remarried. I think he married in Tennesee to a lady named Linda. He died in Tennesee in 92' from bone cancer. I am eager to learn more about my Harness roots. Any information would be helpful.
