John, Thanks for the information. Please tell me, is it that most of the participants are finding themselves tied into the Harris line that appeared in VA around the time of the Virginia Company's Third Charter? I'm trying to get an idea of the results you all are receiving from this project, and your reactions to those results. Then maybe I can convince my husband to cough up the $100 to do it! :-) ----- Original Message ----- From: John Harris To: Angela Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 6:48 PM Subject: Re: [HH] Nathan Harris of Halifax Co, NC 1766-1822 Angela, I don't have any information regarding your line. However, if you haven't heard about it, there is a Harris surname project on familytreedna.com The donor has to be a male Harris. We have submitted samples and are expecting results in a few weeks. About 50% of the donors so far have discovered that they are related to other Harris family trees with common colonial period ancestors. Good luck in your search. -John Harris Angela <angela@iamant.com> wrote: I would like to know if anybody has any evidence showing that Nathan Harris (b. 1766 in either Brunswick, VA or Halifax Co, NC, married to Rhoda Champion in 1805 in Halifax NC, d. 1822 in Warren County, GA) is the father of a Gideon Harris (born c. 1808 in Warren County, GA - married a Mary Ann Aldred who was born 1809 in Warren County, GA - he died c. 1860 in Holmes County, FL). If Nathan was not Gideon's father, then does anybody know who Gideon's father was? Please respond if you have any information about the Harrises of Holmes County and Washington County, FL. I am conducting a huge research project and would like some help in getting around the one brick wall I have in my Harris line.
