Hi all... I'm posting this to everyone because my line takes a different turn than I've seen posted, and I thought it could help someone else. Here's my West Harris ancestry: West Harris m. Mary Turner Isham Harris m. Martha Rowland Ransom Harris I m. Elizabeth Gilliam Ransom Harris II m. Susan Highfield Hanson Harris m. Marina Cole Willis Nelson Harris m. Mary Bernard Conway Lena Armistead Harris m. Wade Hampton Smith Lella Bernard Smith m. Wilbur Lee Vaught Me I need to do more research on this line, from Hanson Harris forward, regarding deeds, wills, etc. My records show West Harris born in Isle of Wight Co., VA and died in Rowan Co., NC. Isham Harris was also born in Isle of Wight Co., but died in Granville Co., NC. From there forward, everyone was born and died in Granville Co. I'm not sure when or why Isham Harris moved to Granville Co.; I need to check that out. Does anyone know? As far as I've seen, I'm first to post a line from Hanson Harris. It's interesting - most people simply list him as a son with no further information about him. Actually, my grandmother remembered Hanson from her early childhood - I think she was 7 when he died. Larealia, I may find the information you're seeking when I get on with my research. I'll keep it in mind. Thanks so much to all of you who have posted information here. You never know when the bit you post will be exactly what someone else is missing! Caroline
