hi, can anyone help? i am looking for a thomas harris, he's not a rellie, but in a family bible that was handed down from my g.g.grandmother there is a death written in it of a 'leonard James Harris' 1884,and i am trying to find out who he was,think he must of been a friend! i think i have found his death in the june quarter--he died in april, and he was 16, so by my reckoning he was born about 1868. on 1891 census i have a thomas harris--a farmer--and one of my rellies and his family are borders with him[presume working for him,at least the father is!] in 1901 they are still there but the father is down as a servent and the wife as sister to thomas, the children are down as neices and nephews. when i saw the name harris it started me looking for the family!! thomas was born in great wolford about 1840-41[not sure if that is warwick] sarah [his sister] was born in blackwell about 1854. many thanks if you can help me find the family. chris.
