My Great-great grandmother was Matilda Evelyn Harris. She had two brothers Stephen (Steven) Floyd Harris and Elisha (Bud) Clemin Harris. Their Father was always told to us as (James) Mack Harris, possilby a nick name. I have found "James Mack" and "Joseph Martin" Harris, as being married to "Nancy E. Caudle", their Mother. Does anyone know or have any documentation or evidence to clarify this for us? Any and all info will be greatly appriciated.
Good day everyone! My name is Maxanne - My parents are Wayne L Sanders and Faye L. Harris. I have followed my Mother's Harris line back to Hilliard Harris (1818-1880) He was married to Mahalia Ann Miller whose line I have followed quite far back into history. I have hit a wall with Hilliard, however, so I hope to find out more about the Harris ancestry from this group.
I have some written information from the Cannon Family (related by marriage to Mahalia Ann Miller) so I plan to dig out that info again to review and update what I can find.
Temperance Overton was the daughter of William Overton (12/3/1638 - 1697) and Elizabeth Mary Waters (1650 - 1697). William and Mary married on 11/24/1670 in Yorktown, Virginia. Mary Waters was of the St. Sepulchres Parish, London, England. She came to Virginia as "maid" to be a wife. Mary was the daughter of Samuel Waters and Ann ?. Temperance's siblings were Samuel Overton, Barbara Overton, Elizabeth Overton (6/28/1673 - ?), William Overton (8/6/1675 - 6/18/1759) and James Overton (8/14/1688 - 6/18/1748)
William Overton was the son of Robert Overton (1609 - 1668) and Ann Gardiner (1613 - ?). Robert Overton was the son of John Overton (1585 - ?) and Joanne Snawsell (abt. 1581 - ?).
John Overton was the son of William Overton (1560 - ?)
