More confirmation of birth year of Emma. On the site "Family Search.org" there
is a marriage certificate for Jeremiah Harris. It states "Jerimiah" sp.
error....married Emma Ward in Ypsilanti Mich., Aug 20, 1898. The brides age is listed as
17 years old. All of the other data matches Jeremiah's parents if you go to the
original document "Michigan Marriages-1868 to 1925". In a few cases they spell
Harris as Harice on this site. The James Harris family lived in Washtenaw, Michigan
probably because Mary Ann Pearl's family had moved there in the early to mid 1800s.
James Harris actually died in Ypsilanti,Washtenaw, Mich July 2, 1884. You can find his
death certificate on "Family Search"....they misspelled his last name as
Harriss.
Hope this info helps.
EMJ
