HARRIS in VT and MASS

I am taking a shot in the dark and seeing if there are any living relatives out there --- perhaps our family lines connect somewhere back in time. PAUL HARRIS (b. 5/29/1887)emigrated from NS Canada circa 1908 to Boston, then settled in RUTLAND VT for a time - circa 1917 per his draft registration; then he disappeared. BESSIE HARRIS (b. 12/1881) likely married in Massachusetts, and settled there as well after emigrating from Nova Scotia closer to 1899. PAUL and BESSIE were living in Boston area in 1910 with their sister RUTH HARRIS NEWOPORT (my ancestor). Also, a sister ALICE HARRIS (b. 1880) I believe also emigrated to BOSTON MASS with BESSIE in 1899, and likely got marrried there, and disappeared. Another HARRIS relative, Margaret HARRIS, (b. 7/13/1895) lived in the Boston area for 20 YEARS before moving back home to Nova Scotia and getting married there. I keep hoping these folks left SOME family downline -- it is just a matter of finding them!

If any of these names appear familiar please let me know!
