John Earl Harris - NY, Porter Co., IN, Cato, Wisconsin
I am looking for information on John Earl Harris who was born in Greenfield, Saratoga Co., NY on June 15, 1798. He moved to Pierpont, OH, Town of Morgan, Porter Co., IN and eventually to Cato, WI where he died in 1855 and was buried in the Cato Heights Cemetery. I have been unable to find any information on his parents or other ancestors. He married Nancy Ormsbee in 1820. She was also from Greenfield. Their children - Nelson Alonzo, Patience, Erwin, Isaac J., and Sarah W.who all grew up in Wisconsin, except for Patience who died young. There are many Harris and Ormsbee graves in Greenfield, but I have been unable to connect John Earl to any of these Harris families.
