Re: John M. Harris- Arkansas

Yes, this is the one I'm looking for. I'm trying to prove that he died in the Civil War. My ggrandfather and his sister were left orphans because, not only was their father killed in the War, but their mother died shortly thereafter. I believe they lived with the Thomas Dunnell family in Illinois around 1870 and I'm trying to find out why they lived with him....was there a relationship. My ggrandfather's name was Edward B. Harris and his sister was Elizabeth Bell Harris. Thanks, Ann
