I'd be grateful to anyone who could supply the information from the 1920 census of Boyd County for J. B. Harris, age 48, who lived in Ashland. I need the names of his children and their ages. Many thanks for your help, and best wishes to you. Scott Swanson sswanson@butler.edu

Scott, The 1920 census shows HARRIS, J.B. 48 b. KY both parents b. KY renting superintendent on C&O r.r. Bess D. 41 wife b. WV both parents b. WV Frederick 17 son b. WV father b. KY mother b. WV Richard 7 son b. WV father b. KY mother b. WV The 1930 census, however, appears to give a different name for Richard - HARRIS, John 60 married at 21 owns house worth $8K superintendent on steam r.r. Bess 50 wife married at 15 Werter 17 son To me it's looks pretty clearly to be "Werter." Ancestry has indexed it as "Wister." I don't see any dot. Maybe someone else can take a look at the 1930 census and see what they think. The age is right for this son to be Richard. 1910 Summers Co.
