high for what I have found so far, but haven't received the

Cousins, Hope this comes thru to everyone. This is Thomas William Harris,
#32, Page 203, in Clanin Family Book.
THOMAS HARRIS ORIGIN: Hatherup, Gloucestershire (or vicinity); MIGRATION:
1630
FIRST RESIDENCE: Winnissimmett; OCCUPATION: Ferryman. On 18 May 1631
"Tho[mas] Will[ia]ms hath undertaken to set up a ferry betwixt
Winnettsem[e]t & Charlton, for which he is to have after 3d. a person, &
from Winnettsem[e]t to Boston 4d. a person" [ MBCR 1:87].; FREEMANSHIP:
Requested October 1630 (as "Thomas Will[ia]ms alias Harris") and admitted 18
May 1631 (as "Thomas Williams")
[ MBCR 1:80, 366]. OFFICES: Coroner's jury, 18 September 1630 on the body
of William Bateman (as "Thomas Williams") [ MBCR 1:78].; ESTATE: Thomas
Harris died before land records were maintained, and left no will. He does
not appear in the lists of early Charlestown residents, or in Boston
records, so it is likely that he supported himself solely by his ferrying
operations. Examination of the land records of WILLIAM STITSON might show
that some land was earlier held by Thomas Harris. BIRTH: Born about 1590 in
or near Hatherup, Gloucestershire, son of William and Agnes (Mason) Harris
[ Bethia Harris Anc 5]. DEATH: Prior to 1634, when Stitson took over the
ferry between Boston and Winnissimmet.
MARRIAGE: By about 1613 Elizabeth _____. She married (2) WILLIAM STITSON ,
who took over the ferry operation. Her death is given as 16 February
1669/70, aged 93 [ ChVR 1:73]; she was more likely a decade younger.
CHILDREN:
i ANNA, b. about 1613 (d. Reading 7 September 1697, aged 84); m. by
1635 Elias Maverick, son of Rev. JOHN MAVERICK .
ii JOHN, b. say 1616; m. (1) by about 1645 Bridget _____ (eldest child
b. by about 1645 [ Bethia Harris Anc 10-11]); m. (2) Rowley 24 October 1677
Elizabeth (Rowlandson) Wells; m. (3) Alice _____, who survived him [ Bethia
Harris Anc 10].
iii THOMAS, b. about 1618 (deposed aged about forty in 1658 [ EQC
2:113]); m. Ipswich 15 November 1647 Martha Lake [ Bethia Harris Anc 56].
iv WILLIAM, b. say 1620; m. (1) by 1645 Edith _____ (first child b.
Rowley 1 July 1645); m. (2) by Lydia (Wright) Smith, daughter of Thomas
Wright and widow of Joseph Smith [ TAG 23:153; Manwaring 1:233].
v ANTHONY, b. say 1622; m. by 1651 Elizabeth _____, who survived him
and was named in his 1651 will [ Bethia Harris Anc 8, citing MPR Case
#10479].
vi DANIEL, b. say 1626; m. by 1651 Mary Weld (first child b. Rowley 2
April 1651), daughter of Joseph Weld (on 19 May 1652 "Daniell Harris and
Mary my wife, one of the daughters of Captain Joseph Weld of Roxbury ...
late deceased" sold to John Weld land that had been bequeathed to her by
"her said father Joseph Weld" [ SLR 1:260; Parker-Ruggles 500-01; Brainerd
Anc 153, 155, 296-97; TAG 23:154]).
ASSOCIATIONS: Nephew Richard Iles also resided at Winnissimmet.
COMMENTS: Three documents are critical for defining this family: the 1639
will of Richard Iles of Winnissimmet; the 1680 deposition of William
Stitson; and the will of William Stitson. Iles was nephew of Thomas Harris,
and may have come with him in 1630; in his will he names his cousins Thomas
Harris, William Harris, Anthony Harris, John Harris, Anne Maverick and
Daniel Harris, giving 20s. to each, and also a coverlet to "my aunt for her
pains and her love" [ NEHGR 2:102-03]. (A discussion of this will by T. W.
Harris is helpful, but must be used with care [ NEHGR 3:218-21].)
On 15 June 1680, Deacon William Stitson testified that Thomas Harris kept
the ferry from Boston to Winnissimmet and Charlestown forty-nine years ago,
and that he married Harris's widow [Middlesex County Court Records,
1671-1680, p. 297].
In his will of 2 April 1688 William Stitson bequeathed to "John Harris,
Thomas Harris, William Harris, Daniel Harris, and Anna Maverick, relict
widow of Elias Maverick, deceased, the children of my first wife" [ MPR Case
#21376].
In some early records, Thomas uses the double name "Williams alias
Harris" or simply the surname "Williams." The reason for this is not known,
and his descendants used only Harris, the ancestral surname.
No records of Thomas Harris in England have been found other than the
mention in his father's 1599 will. Since the Winthrop Fleet was assembled
mostly from East Anglia and London, one would expect to find evidence of the
marriage of Thomas and the baptisms of his children in these areas rather
than in Gloucestershire. Davis suggests, however, that Harris came on the
Lyon, which sailed from Bristol and not from London. (The only reliable
account of this family is in Walter Goodwin Davis, The Ancestry of Bethia
Harris ... [Portland, Maine, 1934], pp. 3-34.)
Cousins,
I joined the New England Historic Genealogical Society and
found this record. As noted Hopkinton is not in Essex County, but
is in Norfolk County, southwest of Boston. I have no idea who these
Clanins might be. I have found other Clanins in some census that I
have no idea who they are. I am sure there are at least a few
Clanins who are not descended from Benjamin and Mary.
Cousin Jim.

Surnames other than Clanin: Morrow, Sherman, Reynolds (my Grandfather
George was adopted, so the line ended there. I know lots about my
Grandmother George's line, the Bainters).
I have a stack of unidentified pictures (undoubtedly Clanin, Morrow, Sherman,
Reynolds individuals) left by my grandmother, Olive Clanin, when she died and
would like to know who the people are. If you would like to look at them,
let me know and I will E-mail them to you. Maybe there is some other way all
of the Clanin Cousins could get a view. Any help?

Hello Cousins,
Hope your spring and summer have been eventful and happy.
A cousin, sometime back, asked me to see if everyone would again
answer a Roll Call and give us a rundown of their Ancestors and
the data that they are seeking. I'm sure that most cousins, like me,
have lost information reguarding each cousins ancestors and how
they tie into the Clanin Family.
Might also be of value to list the other ancestor surnames
that you are working on. You never know what someone else
might have. As for my ancestors:
Parents; James Olin Clanin, Whilma Powell Clanin
>From there; James Monroe Clanin, Julia Francis Freeland Clanin
Isaac Beckley Clanin, Elizabeth Ann Littleton
Samuel Harris Clanin, Hannah Covel Clanin
Benjamin Clanin, Mary Harris Clanin
Other surnames: CALDERWOOD, FREELAND, HARRIS,
LITTLETON, POWELL, ROBESON, and any of the ancestors
of Mary HARRIS.
I still search for any and all associated families.
We need to generate a little more use of the mail list.
Hope to hear from everyone. Cousin Jim
Hi Cousins,
Thought you might be able to use this if you
don't already have a copy. Hope everyone has a
fun summer, schools out. Jim
