Seeking information on: William "Bill" Harris
Born: ca1838-1840NC/Ky??? Died: bef: Feb 1840 in Floyd Co. Ky/Knott Co. Ky?? Married: #1 Mary/Polly Ann Vance D/O John Wesley Vance & Martha "Patsy" Hall-Vance.

William "Bill" Harris & #2 Wife: Martha Patsy Bates-Mullins/Harris are found in the 1880 Floyd Co. Ky. Census, and a Statement of his Death is recorded in the Providence Regular Baptist Church Records on: Dry Creek, Ky/Knott Co. Ky, where he was a Member and Church Clerk untill his Death. I would also like any information on any of the above, also have been told that the Harris Family had alot of Royalties derived from that of: Coal, Gas Wells, Timber that had been removed from there Properties in Knott Co. & Floyd Co's of Kentucky and were placed in a Trust for all the Hiers to be had, and are currently in the process of doing so by a Gr Grand son of William "Bill" Harris, who resides in: Columbus, Ohio and represents some of the Harris Heirs pursuing this quest, which is yet another Mystery to be solved. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
