Hello Jen and all working on this Harris[ Mayhew] line,

You are right that his name was not Samuel Mayhew Harris and
It should have been Samuel and Susanna [Mayhew] Harris! I am
a poor typist and sometimes take shortcuts and this is what can
happen.

I know I become very attentive whenever something is posted
on Adam Wible and Hannah [Harris] Wible as we all know they
are part of this Harris-Mayhew line. We hope more info comes
out on this line and the missing siblings of Samuel JR Harris,
James Harris,John Mayhew Harris, Stephan Harris [there is a possible
located recently in this line] Ruth Harris, Reuben Harris and Benjamin
Harris line which seems to be the best documented. Hopefully soon
they will all be well documented.

Mike
