Biography

Washington Harris was born on 15 January 1861[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] in Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa, United States[1][2][3][4][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. He was the son of Samuel Harris[1][4][10][11][12] and Amanda Glass[1][2][3][4][10][11][12].

Washington married Anna Chaterina Fredericke Schultz[4][5][6][7][8][9][12] on 02 August 1892[4][5][7] in Palo Alto County, Iowa, United States[4][5].

Washington and Anna had 4 children: Amanda Eliza (Harris) Kuyper[13][6][7][14][15][16][17], John William Harris[18][19][6][7][8][20][21][22][23], Leota "Ottie" M (Harris) Seversike[6][7][8][24][25], and William Jennings Harris[6][7][8][26][27][28][29]. On the 1910 census Anna is shown as the mother of 4 children, 4 living[7]. It seems unlikely they had any additional children.

Washington Harriss passed away on 29 April 1936[12] in West Bend, Kossuth County, Iowa, United States[12].
