    3. BARNABAS C. HARRIS, son of George Harris and Hannah TUNIS was born in Essex County, New Jersey in 1768. He came with his parents to Washington County, Pennsylvania in 1787, where he married Esther MILLER of Millersburg, PA., January 19, 1796. They had eleven children. Mr. Harris being a man of energy and ambition, and wishing to better his condition in life, left Pennsylvania and removed to the Northern part of the State of Ohio, then a vast wil- derness. He settled in Trumble, now Mahoning County, Ohio in April 1804 where he resided forty-five years. He was a black- smith by trade, but owned a farm which he carried on at the same time. They were Presbyterians in religion. He raised a family of ten children and lived to see them all grow to man and womanhood, marry and settle in life. His wife died July 2, 1838, and he survived her over eleven years. He died December 18, 1849 at the ripe old age of eighty-one years four months and three days. Children: 1.
