Searching for info about the Edward Harris family listed in the 1910 and 1920 New Albany
census.
Edward was born between 1847 and 1855 in Pennsylvania. Parents were English immigrants. He
apparently lived Virginia,(later W.Va.) and Paducah KY prior to moving to Louisville
before 1890. I did find him on a 1890 street directory living in Louisville. But no census
records that year for Louisville are existing.
No record of him in the 1900 census in Louisville or N.A. He and his wife Mary E. reported
in the 1910 census that they had 9 surviving children. However, only Loretta, Eliza, and
Edward Jr.( my G-father) appear in the 1910. Mary states in census records her parents
were Irish immigrants. My grandfathers death cert. states his mothers maiden name was
Mally. But, I suspect Mary's maiden name could have been O'Mally or Maloy.
I know Ed. Sr and Jr. both worked at Ewald Iron Co. in Louisville. My grandfather, Ed Jr.
moved to Louisville and married before 1920.
If anyone comes across this family in their research please let me know. I have not been
able to determine POB or death records for Edward Sr. or Mary. Any info on their other
children.
Many thanks , Ray Harris
