I descend from Thomas Harris and Mary Jefferson of Henrico co you are mistaken about their son Benjamin Harrisb c 1713 Henrico. he md lst Frances Platt of Henrico and had two daughtersMary who md Sion Spencer son of Thomas Spencer and Elizabeth Julia Flournoy. and Anne.You will find records in Goochland co about the Platt mg.He md 2 Priscilla wagerdaughter of Wm Wager, clerk of the Elizabeth City co Court and his wife Anne HensonBenjamin Harrisdied in Cumberland co Va. where his will was proved 24 April 1776.The Benjamin Harris who md Anne Eppes
died 1757 heavily in debt.I have heard that he was at one time the Kings attorney You need Henrico, Goochland,
Cumberland records but they will not help you determine
who Benjamin Harris Kings attorney was.Its even more confusing because each Benjamin had a son Benjamin.Benjamin of our family, son Benjamin md a Miss Wilson in
Amelia county he came back to his home after she died leaving him with 3 children.Benjamin son of Anne Eppes
has not been traced.
