I probably am going to ramble so bear with me. I am descended from George Overton Harris Jr. b 1790 VA d 10 Nov 1855 in Warren Co KY. He married Elizabeth (Betsey) Holland, dau of Michael Holland and Agatha Ward, 5 Apr 1813 in Warren Co KY. He was the son of George Harris Sr. b1750-1755 VA and Sarah Hudson. Married ca 1772 ????? First son Graves, b 1773 VA. George Sr was the son of William b ca 1730 d 1798 Prince Edward Co VA. All the information I have on William is from the web page of Catharine Stone Sckwarz with contributions from Nelle Craig, Ruby Ogletree, Pat Laney, Howard and Betty Harris, Truman Farris, Paul Dafft (who is no longer with us), Elizabeth Shannon, Beth Strahan and Lynda SoBelle. I have researched George Sr and Jr. Several cousins have participated in the Harris DNA project. We are in Group 8. I have always felt that somewhere along this very long line of Harris' that we are in someway connected with Group 6. Don't really know how all this works but the name Overton comes into many Harris lines. I do not think I ever saw a document on George Sr that gave his middle name but "Overton" is certainly in documents with George Jr. Comments and help welcome. Mary June Foulk Knoxville Tennessee
