Source: familysearch.org LDS site 1880 Newton County, Mississippi I was searching for information to check against what I have on Stanton Young Harris, s/o Sherwood W. & Elizabeth (Harris) Harris. So I looked at the 1880 Newton County, Mississippi census. I found seven Harris families. Here are the heads of each family and the spouse if listed. I have also listed the listed children. Beat 1, Newton County, Mississippi, page 569D T. Newton Harris, WM27, b.Al., Farmer, Father b. Tn. Mother b. Al. Wife: Mary C. WF22, b.Ms., Father b. Ms. Mother b.

Does anyone recognize any of these families and what Harris lines these families are part of? Please respond through HH or H-MS so that others may be helped. Ira L. Harris III Evansville, Indiana
Kristina Harris posted the following information to the Harris-AL list. Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2003 15:29:58 -0700 From: "harris220" <harris220@charter.net> To: HARRIS-AL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [HARRIS-AL] Green and Pickens C. Harris families Evan R. Harris (family groups identified in will of circa 1840) Leodicia or Lucinda Children: Sandford T. David D. Archibald Elizabeth (Mrs. Sherod W. Harris) John R. Simeon P. Evan C. Leah D. Staunton Y. Leodicia Harris (Mrs. Evan R. Harris) died. 30 June, 1853 Heirs: listed in will Sandford T. Harris, Sumter County Elizabeth (wife of Sherod Harris) Archibald David D. Simeon P. Choctaw C., AL Evan C. Laodiciea (Mrs. Lewis Shirley of Noxubee C., MS) Staunton Y. I believe, based on this information, that the S Y Harris in Newton County, MS in 1880 is the son of Evan Harris. He is listed in 1850 Greene County, AL census with Leodicia Harris 64, Elizabeth Harris 35, Leodicy Harris 17, Stanten Harris 18 and Ptolemn Harris (cannot read the age). He is in Choctaw County, Alabama in 1860 and Neshoba County, MS in 1870. I don't know if the other Harris families are connected or not. Do you have any information that would prove he is the son of Sherwood and Elizabeth Harris rather than Evan and Leodicia Harris? Thanks, Irene "Ira L.
