Children:
  • Mary Ann Harris, born 1855

  • Thomas Henry Harris, born 1861
  • Ernest A Harris, born 1866
  • Thomas Edward Harris, born 1871

    Mother: Mary Smerdon

    Notes:

    When Thomas’s mother Mary died in 1856, he proved her will in Exeter and was the only beneficiary
    under her will as well.
    18/8/11 I may have made an error as Jan Wood says there were at least 4 children.
    Although it is possible there have been another child or two conceived/born in this gap, but
    there is no evidence in Totnes baptism or burial registers of any other children
