My Harriss Ancestors
My Harriss/Harris ancestors have been very hard to research. My earliest known Harriss ancestor was Jack Harriss (1774-1861). Jack was born March 7th 1774 in Mecklenberg North Carolina. Jack married Nancy Murrah (1788-1870) who was the daughter of Joshua (born 1764) and Lucy (born 1771) Murrah. Jack and Nancy Harriss had a daughter named Jane (1816-1896). Jane Married Richard Williams (1807-1881). Please see (My Williams Ancestors) page.
