A few days ago I submitted some notes on a Joel Harris and stated I did not know his parentage. (Search the rootsweb archives for Harris-Hunters, if necessary.) I think [never sure in genealogy] I may have discovered that he was a son of James Harris of Albemarle Co., VA and his wife Mary Harris. The latter--the wife and mother--was the daughter of Robert Harris and Mourning Glen[n?] of Louisa Co. and sometimes of Albemarle Co. (colonial era) Corrections and additions are invited. LUCY HARRIS. (Living in 1792) Lucy Harris, wife of Higgason Grubbs of Madison Co., KY, was the child of James Harris and his wife Mary Harris, the latter daughter of Major Robert Harris of Louisa and Albemarle Cos., VA. This is according to page 526 of Hazel A. Spraker in The Boone Family. Lucy Grubbs's identity is confirmed in the Albemarle Co., VA will of her father: Harris, James 5 Feb 1792 Sept 1792 Sons: Thomas, Joel, James, Nathan. Daughters: Ann Haden, Mourning Maupin, Sarah Harrison, Susannah Burnley and Lucy Grubbs. Wife Mary Harris, all land not bequeathed to son Thomas Harris, land adjoining Capt. Robert Harris, dec'd. Exrs: sons Joel and James. Wit: B. Brown and William Spears (Page 165) (J. Estelle Stewart King, ABSTRACTS OF WILLS, INVENTORIES, AND ADMINISTRATION ACCOUNTS OF ALBEMARLE COUNTY 1748-1800 [Beverly Hills, CA 1940], p. 38) Lucy and her husband Higgason Grubbs appear in some of the first court order books of Madison Co., KY, as early as 1789 before Kentucky became a state. Refer to Family History Library film 183,274 Lucy was of age to marry in 1790 KY MARR RECS, p. 92 . Research, Acc., UT, Orem Another Lucy Harris LUCY HARRIS II. We do not know the identity of Lucy Harris II, who married William Jones 1 Feb 1790, Madison Co., KY, Christopher Harris, bondsman. There is no doubt a relationship, but we do not know what it is. Refer to Christopher's will which does not mention a Lucy Jones as a daughter. We believe the bondsman is the younger Christopher Harris, as the elder Christopher was now deceased. Possibly this Lucy Harris is a daughter of the younger Christopher Harris of Madison Co., KY.
