    3. Listers, Attempting to trace a William Harris born 1798 PA. Looking back before Northampton county was divided into Wayne and sequentially into Carbon, Monroe, etc., we find the following census record that could be our ancestor's father: > [**A WILLIAM(S) HARRIS appears in 1800 census for DELAWARE TOWNSHIP, > Wayne County. > Census information: 3-1-0-1-0 || 1-0-1-0-0-0-0 > Ages of above categories: > 3 males b/n 0-10 (one of these would be Wm. b. 1798) > 1 male b/n 10-16 > 0 males b/n 16-26 > 1 male b/n 26-45 > 0 males 45+ > > 1 female b/n 0-10 > 0 females b/n 10-16 > 1 female b/n 16-26 > 0 females 26-45 > 0 females 45+ > > Given the above figures, William Harris of Delaware Twp., Wayne County > was born between 1755 and 1774. > His wife (female in the household) was born between 1774 and 1784, and > they had three boys in the decade 1790-1800, with one son born > earlier. (One female b. between 1790 and 1800 as well.) Does anyone have a suggestion regarding tracing this man's whereabouts? He is not in that twp. by the next census, and nothing appears for 1790 census that would be close. regards & thanks Holly Harris Jagger Binghamton NY
