Seeking information on EDWARD HARRIS and his wife, FRANCES, who deeded their interest in a tract of land to ROLAND (sic) HARRIS. Said deed to be certified in Montgomery Co, NC. Wilson Co., TN, Circuit Court, Book 1832-1833, 9-28-1832, p. 225.

Who were the parents of Edward Harris? Frances? and what was the relationship between Edward and Rowland? Rowland was not a son. Perhaps a brother?

Edward was an early resident of Wilson Co., TN. and served as Justice of the Peace for a number of yesrs. His 1840 will mentions:
