Biography
Circumstancial evidence suggests that Mary was a daughter or sister of Jesse Harris, Sr. who settled on Lick Creek in Rowan (now Davidson) Co. NC before 1772. The Harrises were believed to have come from Halifax Co.VA. After Augustine's death, Mary Davenport was deeded 200 acres on the present Davidson-Randolph Co. line by Jesse Harris, Jr. which she held until 1811 when she deeded it back to him. Where she went after that is unknown.
