Lena Harris

b. May 1895
  • Lena Harris was born in May 1895 in Texas.
  • It is an educated guess that the three youngest children -- Johnie (age 6), Lena (5) and Missie (3) -- enumerated with Beverly and Harriet Harris in 1900, are all actually grandchildren, and the children of son Sam, who may have been recently widowed, although no evidence has been found thus far to support the theory.
  • Beverly and Harriet appeared in the US federal census of 1 June 1900 in West I&GN Railroad, Montgomery County, Texas, enumerated next to the household of Wesley Moses. Other members of the household included Lena Harris, Nellie Harris, Huldy Harris, Charlotte Harris, James Smither Harris, John Harris and Missie Harris. Also in the household were three grandchildren, based on their ages, presumably children of son Samuel since their surname is recorded as Harris.
