There was a James Henry HARRIS that was married to a Margatet GRAVES Harris on the 1860
cencus. They lived in Redland community. There was a son John T Harris, age 2, and Ike Harris,
age 24, was living in the home. I was hoping to find the 1870 census showing that this coulpe had
a son named, Daniel Henry Harris, born in 1962. James Henry Harris could have died before the
1870 census. I would appreciate your help. Joe Harris

Research the JOHNSON, St. CLAIR, and STOUT family. Edward Johnson and his wife,
Deborah St. Clair moved to this county in the 1820's with several grown children. Jane Johnson,

where Jasper went. Texas ? Thanks, Connie Waldrep Cox e-mail larrycox@arkansas.net
