Looking for info on Marshall Harris, m. A.W. unknown. Daughter Ann b. 1834 in Charlotte Co. VA. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Alicia Brown

There was a very prominent Harris family in the Roanoke District from the early 1800s on. In 1801, Robert Harris, Sr. had over 700 acres and 23 slaves. The area known as "Harrisburg" at the junction of routes 619 and 649 not far from Aspenwall was part of their holdings. This info comes from "Charlotte County...Rich Indeed." There is no mention of a Marshall, however, in 1833 a M.L. Harris is mentioned as one of the trustees of Roanoke Episcopal Church. This church was located near Charlotte Court House, and was the forerunner of Grace Episcopal Church in Drakes Branch (don't confuse it with Roanoke Presbyterian in Aspenwall.) Good luck!
