Hugh (H) Hogan Wit: Robert Harris, Richard Harris, Mourning Harris 5 July 1735 ack. by Hugh Hogan (Source: Rosalie Edith Davis, Hanover County, Virginia Court Recods 1733-1735: Deeds, Wills and Inventories [Manchester, MO: Published by author, 1979], p. 67) Those of you familiar with colonial Harris families of Hanover, Louisa, and Albemarle Cos--who is Richard Harris? Is he a brother--or a cousin--of Robert Harris? His name appears frequently in the few remaining Hanover Co. records as abstracted by Davis. He is frequently associated with Robert Harris in several remaining documents of Hanover Co. Robert Harris (later called Major) is a son of William Harris and Temperance Overton. Mourning Harris was reportedly Mourning Glen or Glenn. Has her parentage been adequately proved? Some say her mother was Mourning Winn, but this has been disputed in a recent (last 10 years) article in the Virginia Magazine of Genealogy. Malcolm Hart Harris, MD, who frequently wrote of Louisa Co. and of the Harris family seems to have changed his mind from time to time about the relationships of various Harris families. (Good genealogists always change their minds unless they have adequate proof.) E.W.Wallace (female) Desc. of Robert and Mourning Harris
