Source: RECORDS OF NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY, VIRGINIA Abstracts from the earliest extant records, 1647-1652 Index & Will Abstracts from Record Book, 1710-1713 * And selected records from Order Book, 1737-1743 by Carolyn H. Jett Heritage Books, inc., 1994 * Page 318 of Record Book, 1710-1713 Will --- John Harris, "having lived to a great age," written 23 February 1709/10, proved 18 June 1713. Legatees: daughter Sarah Haynie (wife of Anthony Haynie), her choice of a slave, and a bed and furniture. Whereas I formerly promised my said daughter and her husband Anthony Haynie that if they "would bring what they had and live with me that I would make over to him one hundred acres of land on which I lived, and did so do." Their daughter and my grandaughter, Grace Ball. Executor, my grandson, George Ball, and my daughter, Sarah Haynie. Which John Harris is this? I have a John Augustine Harris married to a Lucinda "Lucy" Haynie (who has a brother, Anthony), but they do not seem to fit the above citation. Is this another John Harris, whose daughter Sarah married another Anthony Haynie? Any insight is appreciated. Please respond through HH or H-COLONIALVA so that others may be helped. Ira L. Harris III Evv., In.
