    1. Some Harris Brides in Goochland, Co., VA-1748 & 1762
    2. This is from FHL film 31650, Goochland Co., VA Register of Marriages, 1730-1853 compiled by Virginia State Library. The film from the LVA has a different number, of course. 1748 - 2 (?) April Samuel Flournoy & Elizabeth Harris; John Harris, father. Security & Witnesses: Henry Wood, James Harris, William Harris 1762 - 21 October - John Yarbrough - Barsheba Harris, Thomas Griggs Yarbrough, father. Security & Witnesses: William Meriwether, Wm. Spurlock, Fanney Yarbrough (Where the parent gives consent, of course, one of the partners ia underage.) There may be other Harris marriages, as I did not complete the reading of the reference film. Note that Goochland Co. was formed 1742 or so from Hanover Co. Analysis of land patents may help you distinguish who these Harrises were--from the watercourse, and who their neighbors were. The securities and witnesses no doubt were neighbors. E.W.Wallace
