General Notes: Husband - Edward Harris


From Scotland; he abandoned his large estates, which were confiscated (and never recovered) in consequence of the persecution of the Covenanters in the reign of Charles II, or his successor, James II (1660 to 1689), and settled in the County Donegal, near Rapho, in Ireland, his brother Charles accompanying him and receiving like treatment.

During the reign of Charles II, in 1689, Edward Harris, being driven from Scotland, settled in County Donegal, Ireland, and his large landed estates in the former country were thus lost. [CBRCP-CCJC, 671]


General Notes: Wife - Flora Douglass
