    1. [HARRIS-HUNTERS] Samuel Harris, SR/ William/Jesse. Loudoun Co. Va. Lineage
    2. Dick & Peggy Johnson
    3. Is there anyone else on this list that descends from my Harris line in these Va. counties ? I don't know which son of Samuel Harris, Sr and Esther unknown my David Harris descends from. Some of my line moved from the counties below to Bedford County, VA and then my line on to Allen Co., Ky. My David Harris was born ca 1760's in Loudoun county and his will is on file 1842 in Allen Co., Ky. ------------------------------------- I was finally able to go over to Loudoun Co. Va. but did not find anything on your David Harris. Everything seems to be on the David Harris that was Samuel's son and William's brother. Here is a list of the microfilm images that I have found and the names mentioned on them. Sorry for the bold but there is so much stuff here. Samuel Harris Deed 1742 - Grant from Thomas Lord Fairfax to Samuel Harris surveyed by Amos Janney on Joseph Dixon's line William Harris Deed 1742 - Grant from Thomas Lord Fairfax to William Harris surveyed by Amos Janney next to Samuel Harris to a line of John Hanby.

William Harris's inventory 1767 - appraised by John French, William Tayller, Tho Owsley. recorded 14 Sep 1767 Samuel Harris will 1782 - wife Mary and son (unreadable but looks like Asa) executors. son Thomas mentioned. Witnessed by: Joshua Daniel, Jane Daniel Recorded 14 Apr 1783 Mary Harris, Samuel Harris executors. Abraham Dawson and William Harris gave securities. parts of several sentences were not readable. The 1761 Loudoun County Virgina Rent Rolls listed Samuel Harris, William Harris, David Harris. Still to early to be your David. In addition to the wills, I found Jesse Harris on several tithe tables. I still don't know if it is 'my' Jesse. 1772 Jesse Harris, Samuel Coombs,William Cryer, and Robert Campbell - 4 1773 Jesey Harris, Samuel Coombs, Robert Campbell -3 1774 Jesse Harris, Samuel Coombs - 2 1775 Jesse Harris, Samuel Coombs - 2 1777 Jesse Harris, George Nixon, William Nixon -3 1780 Thomas Harris, William harris William Dewer, James Perry - 4 1781 Thomas Harris, William Harris, James Berry - 3 1782 Jesse Harris -1 Jesse Harris married a non-member of the Hopewell Friends Oct 1776 On 29 Mar 1777 Jesse Harris resigns membership, acc & released. I have not been able to find the name of the woman he married. If he married a Frances Ward, d. of William Ward then it would be my Jesse . I still need to review more of the Quaker MM and I will let you know if I see anything on your David. Peggy -----------------------------------------------------------------
