Frances "Fanny" Harris

(10 Sep 1793 - 11 Nov 1888)



Some believe this lady to have been the wife of Samuel H. Haden, son of William and Ann Johnson Haden. It is possible she was his second wife, as I believe his first wife, Rebecca Harris, died circa 1835. It does solve the problem that they both had the Harris surname and I have found proof that Fanny was available.

Fanny Harris married Joseph Black, 24 Feb 1815. Christopher Harris was father of the bride and security for the bond.

Online databases show three children:
Margaret "Peggy", b. 28 Dec 1815
Christopher, b. 17 Feb 1817
Joseph, b. 25 Mar 1819

In 1830, there was in Simpson Co KY:
Frances Black: 2 males age 10-15. 1 female age 10-15, 1f age 30-40. Frances Harris would have been about age 37. p.298. She was counted two households from:
Christopher Harris: 1m age 20-30, 1m age 70-80; 1f age 70-80
This certainly puts Frances, now a widow, in the right place to meet and marry Samuel H. Haden.
