From Monmouthshire.

Very interesting that they lived for some period in Port Huron, Michigan, apparently E. G. Harris never left, while his parents went on to TN.

Marriage record indicates that fathers name is Edward Harris, laborer, from Monmouth. Witnesses, James George and Elizabeth Vaughan. See pdf for Sarah Anne.

His birth record in Monmouth [Mar 1842] is here: http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/information.pl?cite=5BzTV23%2B5RJ29Xtw5gQYkw&scan=1

It appears that Henry's mother, Ann Lewis died before 1849, when his father remarried Emma Porter. Henry did not live with his father (who lived inMuch Birch, Herefordshire), but rather with his mother's sister Amelia and her husband James Williams. according to the 1851 census. Emma is thename of Henry's first child, in honor of his stepmother?
