Harris Surnames

The 1870 U.S Federal Census indicates that Robert Harris was born in 1845 in Columbian Grove Township, several miles from Kenbridge, Lunenburg County, Virginia. Also, this area was known as Lunenburg Courthouse or Post Office District. Slave schedules from the 1860 U.S. Federal Census, Roll 1393, Lunenburg County, Virginia suggest that Robert Harris was a slave in Lunenburg County on a plantation owned by William A. Harris. There were 39 Harris, 8 Tucker, 165 Gee, 14 Bolling, and 148 Neblett slaves listed in the 1860 Slave Schedule. Some of my Harris ancestors came from nearby Dinwiddie County, Virginia. Many of these family members eventually made their way from Virginia to the Newark, Clayton, and Glassboro, New Jersey areas around 1907.

Primary surnames are intended to follow genetic lineage whenever possible for the benefit of future researchers. A.K.A. names may reflect the mother's maiden or adopted names. Corrections, additions, and recommendations are welcomed for future generations.
