Hi, all, Took a couple of days off to do some housecleaning. More from Cedar Creek Meeting, etc. I got a little ahead of myself, and missed several important records prior to the marriage of Rachel Harris & Clark Terrell Moorman in December of 1770, and the disownment of Jeremiah in 1784, daughter & son of Benjamin & Sarah Dumas Harris. So here they are.
