Reprint of the original, first published in 1883.
Excerpt from Our Kith and Kin, or a History of the Harris Family: 1754-1895 This modest little volume owes its existence to what was at first a small collection of matter for the information of the writer's immediate family. Friends desired and asked for its publication. Then other matter was obtained, hence the present form and arrangement of the book. It is not given to the public as a complete record of all the descendants of the Harris Family, but the author's aim and desire were to make it complete, and to this end neither time, labor, nor expense were spared in the collection of material. It may be, doubtless will be, disappointing to some, but when it is remembered that the families are scattered abroad over this South land from Virginia to Texas, that some have been lost sight of entirely, that in some instances valuable records have been lost or destroyed, while in a few instances little or no taste or interest is felt by the present generation in such matters, it is a source of gratification that so much reliable information has been gathered and arranged in a simple, intelligible and permanent form.

To all who have so kindly aided us in the collection of materials public acknowledgment is herewith most gratefully made. If this little volume shall in any degree serve to keep green and fragrant the memory of our worthy ancestors, or contribute to the instruction and pleasure of any descendant, or stimulate and encourage a single reader to collect and preserve materials for future history, the author will feel that she has not written in vain.
